Sorry, we don't allow throughout history questions. These tend to produce threads which are collections of trivia, not the in-depth discussions about a particular topic we're looking for. If you have a specific question about a historical event or period or person, please feel free to re-compose your question and submit it again. Alternatively, questions of this type can be directed to more appropriate subreddits, such as /r/history or /r/askhistory.

What a difficult question to answer!

What do you mean by 'country'? You mention the Nation-State in your description - this concept typically only applies after the Treaty of Westphalia.

What do you mean by 'economy'? Centralised control? A fixed currency? Taxes? Nations come and go, but economies always persist. People have been bartering for goods since before history was recorded.

I have no idea how to answer your question unless you ask a more specific one:D
