Reminds me a bit of simcountry, which I played briefly a decade and a half ago. I liked the idea of it, but it was overwhelming. It had so many commodities and industries that it was hard to wade through it all. This looks like a similar idea, but much less overwhelming.
In simcountry you start with an existing country and you could fairly easily build just about any industry, so options opened up into analysis paralysis really quickly.

It means you have to be more deliberate in what you buy and sell.
