Most of the people work in trade or as government employees, and the rest are farmers. There are few university graduates, because most people are not interested in continuing their studies for reasons of economic and environment culture. Many of the natural resources of this regency are not explored and utilized because of the mountainous geography.

gollark: If you use sufficiently complex methods to choose boxes, the simulator has to basically simulate the entire universe and thus the simulation is basically "real" (depending on your philosophical outlook).
gollark: You don't pick B, you pick either just A or A+B.
gollark: But, considering only somehow "real" universes, your choice after the boxes are filled can't affect the contents and it's "strictly better" to take both, as this provides more money than taking one. But everyone who does this gets less money than the oneboxer people due to them being predicted as doing that. Thus paradox.
