Cartadania is the world's largest producer of coffee, accounting for almost one-third of global coffee production, a position that the country has maintained for the past 270 years. The country's coffee plantations span over an area of approximately 27,000 square kilometers, with the majority located in the eastern states of Aleira, Acara, and São Andreas, as well as the western states of Guanilu, Porta Bianca, and Victoria and the territory of Santa Domenica. These regions are known for their ideal growing conditions that are influenced by the environment and climate.
The arrival of coffee in Cartadania dates back to the 17th century, and the country has been the dominant producer since the 1750s. The coffee industry in Cartadania flourished during the 19th century, with immigrants coming to work on the coffee plantations. Cartadanian coffee production peaked in the 1970s, with the country supplying nearly 100% of the world's coffee. However, since the 1990s, global coffee production has increased, resulting in a decline in Cartadanian coffee production's share of world coffee output. Nonetheless, Cartadania remains a significant player in the global coffee industry, and its coffee is highly valued for its unique flavors and quality.
