In the early years of the Republic, the economy remained unstable. The government experienced constant changes in leadership, and this political instability led to stagnation in economic development. However, the rural economy was recovering and the overproduction of agricultural goods lead to an increase in foreign exports. This was reflected by the trends in GDP. Industrial output also recovered, leading to increased foreign investment in San Ba. Development of industrial goods was strongly encouraged after the end of the Long War.
