With the population shooting through the roof, Wollaston was in need of an economic foundation and layout. Selling mystery crates gave the nation a heavy amount of abrupt income but was not a viable long term solution for funding the nation. The idea of a shopping district quickly aroused support and an effort was made in downtown Wollaston to convert buildings to shops, parks, info centers, and a church dedicated to the nation's religion of Capybara. In just a few days over 15 chunks of farmland was constructed, most of which lay underground in order to protect Wollaston's food supply. With the speed and reliability of these crops, Wollaston became known as the "Potato Capital of the World" by many across the world. This potato economy provided funding not only for the nation's new shopping district, but for many projects and programs throughout the empire. Dubs of potatoes were sold for 35-37g depending on whether they were raw or cooked. Prices were also calculated for single chest purchases, as well as prices to be purchased in rows. With the layout of the potato shop complete, the company of Wollaston Farms was introduced, led by the council and farmers of the nation. Wollaston was now the world's fastest and cheapest potato producer. | With the population shooting through the roof, Wollaston was in need of an economic foundation and layout.

He coronated Emperor AaLovely as Wollaston's 2nd Emperor, and transferred ownership of the capital to him.
