===Standard of living===
===Employment===
Because Torlen's economy is a high-low mix of sectors from research to traditional fishing and herding, opportunities abound for Torliennes at all skill and education levels, which has helped the islands maintain a fairly steady unemployment rate of around X% for the last decade.
[[Burgundie]]'s high emphasis on [[Culture_in_Burgundie#Education|education]] translates to a particularly educated and skilled workforce, leading to lower unemployment compared to less educated countries in [[Levantia]]. The islands' economic diversity cushions against overreliance on any single industry, which has demonstrably made the island more resilient during downturns. Since [[Burgundie]] strives for [[Total Economic Engagement]] and espouses equal rights and opportunities regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, ability, or background, Torlen benefits from improved access to education and training, impacting employment prospects across various fields.
===Agriculture===
===Agriculture===
Citrus (grapefruit and orange) exports are the main agricultural export of Torlen. Other than citrus, notable agricultural subsectors include bananas, mangos, vegetables (mostly tomatoes, avocadoes, and onion), livestock, and poultry.

====Roads and rail====
====Rail====
{{Further|Rail transportation in Burgundie}}
Torlen uses [[Track gauges around the world|Standard gauge]], 1,435 mm (4 ft 8+1⁄2 in) for both freight and passenger rail.
 
[[Rail_transportation_in_Burgundie#Istroyan_Rail|Istroyan Rail]]- Istroyan Rail ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: ''Istroie Ferroviaire''), is the public-private joint-venture, intercity, passenger rail operator in [[Torlen]], [[Antilles]], [[Alcairet]], and [[Chaukhira]]. It owns and operates all rail corridors, {{wp|rights of way}}, and rolling stock that serve this purpose.
 
====Road====
 
====Air====
====Air====
The Torlen Regional Airport is a small, short haul airport facility that is shared by the civilian terminal and Advance Warning and Intercept Task Group 3 (AWITG3) of the [[Navy of Burgundie|Navy of Burgundie Hyperthalatton]] and [[Revenue Guard]].
There are 3 gates in the passenger terminal:
*Gate A: Operated by [[AiReal]] with direct flights to [[Grand Isle International Airport]]
*Gate B: Operated by [[AiReal]] with direct flights to airports in [[Marves]], [[Marialianus]], and [[Estia]]
*Gate C: Operated by [[AiReal]] with direct flights to airports in [[Pumbria]], [[Martilles]], and [[Agiocles]].
There is a small cargo terminal operated by AiReal Cargo.
====Energy and electricity====
====Energy and electricity====
30% of Torlen's energy is solar including [[Torlen#Agrovoltaics|agrovoltaics]], 25% from wind, 22% from tidal, 10% from natural gas, the remainder is supplied by a undersea power cable to [[Marialianus]]. The island has 8 battery banks that can keep essential government services like police, fire, and EMS operating for 48 hrs if there is a total blackout.
Most power infrastructure is buried because of the intensity of [[Levantine hurricane]]s.
====Phone service and internet====
====Phone service and internet====
Phone and internet service are provided by
[[List_of_companies_by_industry_in_Burgundie#Service|Great Seas BurgunMobile, Vintage Wireless, and National Wireless Services]], which have 7, 6, and 2 towers respectively across the island. 100% of the island and its population are covered by at least one of the services, National Wireless Services covering the less densely populated and therefore less profitable areas. Copperwire and fiberoptic phone still exists, one or both are required for all municipal and emergency response connections, and people along the route are allowed to buy in, but during emergencies their calls are de-prioritized in favor of emergency response calls, which is the same with mobile service on the island. There is an undersea cable from [[Marialianus]] to Torlen.
Highspeed internet service is provided by [[List_of_companies_by_industry_in_Burgundie#Service|Great Seas BurgunMobile, and Extron Burgundie Mobile]]. Residential internet speeds average 2-3 gigabits while commercial speeds are typically higher in the 3-4 gigabit range.
There is also a [[Global Maritime Distress and Safety System]] repeater and beacon on the island.
