Markkeina, also known as the market economy, is an economic system where the allocation of resources and the pricing of goods and services are determined by the interaction of supply and demand in a market. In a market economy, private individuals and businesses own and control the factors of production, such as land, labor, capital, and entrepreneurship. Prices are set by the market based on the cost of production and the demand for goods and services.
Key characteristics of a market economy include:
Price mechanism: Prices adjust to reflect the cost of production and the demand for goods and services.
Private property: Individuals and businesses own the factors of production, and they have the right to use,
Profit motive: Businesses operate with the goal of maximizing profits, which encourages innovation and efficiency.

Examples of market economies include the United States, the United Kingdom, and many other developed countries.
