With the rise of air travel and beginning of the [[Second Great War]], the era of major ocean liners appearing in New Archduchy came to an end. Oceangoing commerce in general dropped off precipitously as the Odoneru Ocean became a conflict area in the 1930s. Additionally, the war meant that many Caphirian tourists could no longer leave the country due to wartime conditions. These factors all combined to create a major economic depression in New Archduchy in the 1930s and early 1940s, with the only major remaining source of foreign income being continued customs and dues on Arcer business. Despite this, New Archducal banks continued to prosper as individuals abroad decided to store their funds and valuables in the country for fear of losing them due to the war. | |||
