another thing I want to change is that all of the Land Areas are way larger and more spaced apart. the ingame world map & playable area is sort of a condensed version of the actual areas.
Jamaa runs with a mixed economy deal with both bartering and currency; some places use gems and diamonds (usually businesses), others barter and trade (individual). Jamaa Township, the biggest and populous region of Jamaa, uses gems and diamonds primarily. This is because Jamaa Township is the main sort of marketplace for Jamaa, so they use a simpler system of currency (mostly). Lots of selling and buying going on there.
Jamaa Township is also a prolific great-plains biome! So theres some good agriculture in there too. But most of Jamaa's produce comes from two areas; the open corner of Sarepia Forest that neighbors Jamaa Township, and these four beautiful islands right here:

I haven't decided exactly what these islands are named, or if they have individual names, but they are independent from all of the other regions of Jamaa! They recently left Kimbara Outback with the help of Liza and Cosmo (and their apprentices). It's a little farming region! Very hilly with flowery meadows. Hosts a lot of orchards. Gets a lot of sun :)
Kimbara Outback hosts a lot of hospitals and a lot of medical study takes place here. It's also notorious for having TERRIBLE furniture.
Appondale... I'm not really sure if I'm going to keep Jammers owning... little versions of themselves? So Claws 'N Paws is being turned into an animal study facilitation, with a shit ton of equipment for studying wildlife. There's a lot of questions around non-sentient animals, and how it relates to Jammers. Appondale is a very academic region, with a lot of museums!
