As a region, most of the industries in The Slide countries are towards the better half of the scale. However, The only industry in the top 25% of the world is arms manufacturing led by Patrackia, Dcba, and Aussandries. Most of the other industries fall in the top 30-40%. The region as a whole is way down on economic freedom only reaching the top 80% in the world.

- 6,335^th for most corrupt governments (most: Dcba - (271.8)

Perhaps the most notable observation is the amount of black market activity. The Slide countries is in the top 11% with major contributions from Patrackia, who has about twice as more as the next closest Dcba, and a little more than 6 times as much black market activity then Aussandries. There may be a correlation between the black market economy and the regions leading industry of arms manufacturing although this is only speculative.
