=== Modern history ===

In the twentieth century, due to its position at the mouth of the Urlazio Sea and Cartadania's control of the channels, the state forbade ships of the Imperial navy from passing through its waters into the Odoneru. Though not an active weapons manufacturer for much of its history, the state did manufacture and store a large amount of artillery during the [[Great War]]. Although its government advocated for neutrality during the conflict, Cartadania's position adjacent to Caphiria and so close to southern Levantia made it difficult for it to remain out of the war. Because the larger portion of both the Marée and Sanoria Channels belong to São Ricardo, the state was able to largely enforce travel restrictions via Congress and keep record of who and what passed through its borders. After the Great War, São Ricardo's economy greatly expanded due to strong aerospace and defense industries, whose size decreased following the end of the Cold War.

It was around this time that the state also adopted a unified school model for public education, which had previously been devolved to the counties, as well as its Plan for Higher Education, which established the state's college and university systems. São Ricardo's economy increased rapidly after the 1950s, pushing the state to first among median household incomes. This, however, also caused the average cost of a single-family home to increase as well. Housing prices in urban areas continued to increase; a modest home which in the 1960s cost €25,000 would cost half a million escudo or more in urban areas by 2005. More people commuted longer hours to afford a home in more rural and suburban areas while earning larger salaries in the urban areas.
