Department of Trade and Finance
Edit
The UFSA Department of Trade and Finance is the sole governing body for South America's economy. The DoTF is responsible for recording and maintaining the UFSA's economic interests and assets both domestic and international. The DoTF is based out of the capital like all other departments, but it is unique in having a second office in Montevideo, Uruguay because of the city's importance to South America's economy.
Trade

Imports
Edit
South America imports little as compared to most nations surrounding it. Because of the modernization efforts in the early 2000's, South America has became fairly self sufficient, and is rather a large exporter than is an importer. None the less, South America still imports consumer goods from Europe, North America, and East Asia.
Exports
Edit
South America exports a large amount of items for use by foreign nations. South America mainly exports raw materials and minerals, but a small percentage is made up of consumer goods and other items. South America supplies most of the EAF's food supplies ever since the "Balkanization" of Yarphei. South America also exports fine quality items like exotic fruits, machinery, alloys, and many other things.
Taxes
Edit
South America is a tax haven, with low income and sales taxes. Inheritance taxes do not exist in South America do to the unfair gesture of them. South America's current tax rate is at 4.3% for all revenue, and sales taxes are at 2.5% for all sales money earned. South America also does not use the property tax system, but it's government maintains a balanced budget.
