Capitalism

Capitalism is an economic system in which industry and trade are controlled by private owners in a bid to make as much profit as possible and can be considered the polar opposite of Communism which is able abolishing ownership rights and allowing allowing everything to be owned by everybody.

The concept of Capitalism has had an impact on tg like many political systems have, as they are perfect to create races/settings/empires from. Many human and other civilised nations in other settings use captalist trade and economic ideas in their settings and often national relations between races depend on existing trade agreements (busty elf maidens need to get paid somehow!).
