Agartha/Resources

== Resources ==
Due to it's location, Agartha's resources consist of many mineable materials. These materials are used both for the nation's utilities, and for international trade. Crystals are another common resource, and are used for lighting and aesthetics. Agartha has also synthesized a new metal similar to steel but as a cheaper and more durable alternative. This material, commonly known as "Baja Acero" is exported to many nations and is one of the country's most common and profitable commodities. 
== Use of Magic ==
Since its founding, Agartha has conducted research into controlling magic, especially through the abundance of crystals and gems that the country holds. Many experiments are done with various gemstones in order to discover new ways of manipulating life energy, and using magic to supplement religious rituals. The oldest way of using magic however, is by inscribing special markings on one's person, and undergoing special training and studies. The training can take years, even for a skilled student and becoming a master of magic is a lifelong pursuit.
