Chakailan has a very small economy, and its people are considered among the poorest in the world. The primary sectors are subsistence agriculture and nomadic pastoral herding. The economy of Chakailan is such that its government is not sufficiently strong enough or have enough credit to issue a currency. In the more remote parts of the country, barter is the primary form of exchange, but the government uses [[Cronan lira]] as its de facto currency for internal and external transactions, and observers note that the [[Taler]] is also accepted in some parts of the country at a 1-to-1 rate with the lira despite the difference in value of these currencies abroad. | Chakailan has a very small economy, and its people are considered among the poorest in the world.

Chakailan is very under-urbanized, with a large, central city only presently under construction as a project of the new state - T'laa'nah, which means "liberty", - which also serves as the nation's capital.

Few transportation networks or systems allow travel throughout the country, with an in-progress highway and rail network system emanating out of the city of T'laa'nah, which is under construction. T'laa'nah is home to the nation's only airport, which is being upgraded to be able to accommodate international flights. Many of the nation's former Varshani-run village concentration camps have been abandoned or destroyed, with recent government incentives attempting to encourage individuals to abandon the nomadic lifestyle and return to the sites of the villages in an attempt to create a small, but stable urban core to the country. | ||
As of the late 2020s, the nation's primary form of state revenue is in the form of foreign aid from [[Urcea]] and [[Kiravia]], particularly [[Ministry_of_Commerce_(Urcea)#Agency_for_Cronan_Economic_Development|ACED]] funds. These funds are being used to support state operations in addition to being used to fund construction of T'laa'nah and its associated infrastructure. Besides state-to-state transactions, foreign investment into the country has been limited, especially due to the lack of urban centers which might provide a good opportunity for growth. Economists anticipate that the state's budget will be largely self-sustaining by the early 2040s. | As of the late 2020s, the nation's primary form of state revenue is in the form of foreign aid from [[Urcea]] and [[Kiravia]], particularly [[Ministry_of_Commerce_(Urcea)#Agency_for_Cronan_Economic_Development|ACED]] funds.
