There was no real industry. Most of the people had small farms. There were no schools, no electricity, and hardly any cars. By the standard 标准 of other countries, the people were quite poor but they had enough to live and everyone had more or less the standard of living. They living in peace in their beautiful scenery. And then the tourists came. There were only small groups at first, but then word of this beautiful unspoilt land spread. The tourists could not be expected to live in primitive conditions so the first hotels were built in Purura, the capital. The hotels were followed by bars and shops. Electricity was needed for these tourist facilities so power stations were built. All kinds of goods were needed for these new facilities so the government built roads so that trucks could deliver these goods. Some of the Puristani people had good business ideas for tourism and became quite rich. The government needed to educate people for these new industries so schools were built and the decision was taken to educate children in English, the language of industry and tourism rather than the local language. The families who still work on the farms have been left behind.
