With northern Battganuur and Alcairet as its geographical bases, the colony thrived on its strategic location, facilitating Silk Road trade. The Ularien Trading Company, known for its shrewd business practices, fostered a robust economy by establishing trade routes, fostering local industries, and amassing wealth through the control of key resources, further bolstered by the exploitation of the region's natural resources.
