Trade Goods are available to states playing in a world.

There are six types of trade goods, however at most a state may only produce two of them, the others being obtainable by trade:

• IV - Investment goods, produced by Superpower and Industrial Power states.
• DL - Services, produced by Superpower and Industrial Power states.
• LX - Luxury goods, produced by Industrial Country states.
• RS - Ressources, produced by Fundamentalist and Ressource Power states.
• FW - Finished goods, produced by Industrial Country, Postcommunistic, and Emerging Nation states.
• HW - Semi-finished products, produced by Postcommunistic and Emerging Nation states.

As noted, some state templates share the production of a or two trade goods, but the Industrial Country template is the only capable of producing Luxury goods. Developing Country states may not produce any goods; however, they will still yield the other benefits from a trade agreement should they choose to take part in one, and may still import trade goods produced by states.
