With support from the MEC and increased funding, Pantsvile was able to slowly charge out of the economic depression. From this, Pantsville continued to further industrialize from its starting point during the Great War. Before the 1940s Pantsville had a minimal amount of industrial bases outside of cities like Falmata and Temfall, so there was next to no industrialization outside of railroads and small factories. One of the major starting points for industrialization was the automobile industry Gelene Motors and Alcam Holdings Were both of the major automobile Industries in Pantsville at the time. After that more and more industrial companies are to pop up, most dealing with manufacturing. This included Machinery, textiles, and Chemicals. In 1947 The third presidential election was held Seymor could not run due to the Constitution stating that a president could not serve more than two terms so the election was held between a conservative Josiah Mikindo and a leader from the Socialist Party Johan Pachina. Mikindo would win And promised to bring economic growth to the nation. That same year Pantsville saw what would be named The Great Monsoon. It was an extended Monsoon that saw heavy amounts of rain and mainly affected major Monsoon areas as the monsoon over a lot of fertile lands it was left over and the farming community thrived off of the new land.

Although industrialization had been mostly good for the country worker conditions in most factories were less than decent, this would lead to the rise of unions In the late 1950s

1960s
The '60s Marked a very prosperous time for Pantsville due to the transition to manufacturing and industrial production, and the growth in culture, infrastructure, and Social Services. The nation of them and tourism brought in a lot of money, especially in the year when Islands entrepreneurs would buy land and rent out property this helped turn the Yuran Islands into the most wealthy Province even surpassing the industrial hubs in Rutinia and Ralleigh.1962 Frederick Murphy won the Presidential election that year becoming the only member of the Socialist Party to ever win an election. With economic growth and stability assured and Murfy's side to improve worker rights and approve of more help to the disadvantaged. 1964 the Worker Protection Act was passed setting a limit on no more than 60 hours for work week minimum wage equal to 1 USD an hour.

The 60s were another good year for culture Cinema and the entertainment industry grew dramatically in the late sixties.

1970s
The 1970s started as a continuation of the previous decade in 1972 Albert Raten was re-elected as president Just in time for a major economic crash in pantsville. It was caused due to corporate economic changes, and poor fiscal management of government. The crash also led the government to run short on fuel from gas imports, in desperation the government began to use its immense agricultural surplus. Using it they began creating biofuels, mostly ethanol to make up for gas loss. The economy had mostly stabilized by 1975 but the growth of the earlier decades had stopped.

Also, in 1977 conservative politician Brandon Dalman won the election promising to bring better economic prosperity to pantsville.

1980s
The 80s began as a period of recovery from the economic depression of the 1970s. Under the leadership of Dalmon, the government implemented measures to support the economy, with a particular focus on lowering taxes for both corporations and the general public. However, this approach drew criticism from liberals who argued for a more active government role in improving the overall quality of life for Pantsvilleans. The conservatives also kickstarted the growth of the Pantsville Military, leading to the military size increasing by around 25,000 during the 1980s, reflecting strong defense priorities. Despite the economic stabilization, wages and the quality of living for many citizens stagnated at pre-recession levels, prompting ongoing concerns about social and economic inequality. Nevertheless, Dalmon managed to secure re-election in 1982, demonstrating a degree of political support for his administration's policies. However, his term was cut short when he faced impeachment in 1984 on allegations of laundering federal money. This led to Vice President Bill Rutger to become the president. Rutger, a more favorably viewed politician among colleagues and conservative voters, continued many of Dalmon's established initiatives. His popularity translated into electoral success in 1987, winning his election. Wanting military support, in 1988 Pantsville expressed its intent to join the International Democratic Alliance (IDA). Towards the end of the decade, Pantsville experienced a significant influx of migrants from various countries. In response, the government decided to tighten immigration laws.
1990s
The Conservative wave of the 80s continued into the 90s, with Conservatives dominating politics. But the conservatives continued to get more cocky with their policies. During the 1992, the conservatives ran a more radical politician, Kennie Sinkle, Sinkle enacted a new plan for government which significantly lowered government spending. The plan failed horribly and Pantsville was on the verge of recession, in order to mitigate the effects, A new deal was passed for an economic stimulus, it was vetoed by Sinkle, but passed through congress a second time, making it a law. Sinkle failed to win relection in 1997, due to his poor management of the economy, where he was replaced by Jan Murdock. Murdock was the first democratic president in 20 years, and marked the end of the conservative domination of politics. Murdock would begin a roll out of economic reforms, which revitalized the economy, by funding various programs, and improving welfare, and support for poorer areas.

Language
The Majority Language in Pantsville is Hansan, spoken by almost everyone in the country. Hansan originated in Hansa and was brought over by settler colonists from Hansa, who remain the largest group in Pantsville, so the language was adopted by immigrants from other countries, and forced upon natives in the area. Hansan is part of the North Amnisian language group and is very similar to Bonnish, another North Amnisian language group. The language originates from a proto-north Amnesian language, which developed a branch in Hansa. When the Daresian empire invaded the Hansa area, it also brought its language, and letter system. Which was quickly adopted in the area. Under Daresian rule, the proto-hansan language was slowly influenced by the Daresian language. After the Daresian empire fell, its language influences still stayed in Hansa. While the local language continued to morph, many scholars still used Daresian, as it was universal for Amnisian scholars. Because of this when dictionaries began to become common, daresian loan words and phrases became common and were used publically. Upon colonization by Hansa, Hansan and Pantsville and Hansan Hansa became moderately different, as they developed in different ways. Because of this, Pantsvillean Hansan is considered a dialect and has notable differences.

Music
Music has been around in Pantsville for a very long time the first versions of music relied heavily on drums and were used by the indigenous people, the drums were commonly made of wood and animal skin. These instruments are often coupled with chants and mantras and were normally used for celebrations and religious ceremonies among other things. This would be the case for many years up until Pantsville’s colonization by Hansa. When this happened Hansa brought many types of music and instruments, the main type of music that was introduced was the religious chants of Mathetism and Elianitism and forms of classical music. In the 1800s folk music became very popular and was generally used by a mix of guitar and woodwind instruments. Folk music would be popular in Pantsville for a very very long time up until about the 1950s when the first cultural revolution happened in Pantsville this brought additional genres of music into the scene including forms of jazz, blues, and rock.

Cinema
Most Cinema In Pantsville revolves around the city of Meraw, Rutinia. The domestic film industry in Pantsville was not very active until the 1950s. It was kickstarted by government subsidies into the entertainment industry. At first, most of it was oriented in falmata, and cinemas were built in various areas around the city, most played imported films from Hansa, but due to Hansa's civil war, most cinemas quickly ran out of new films to import. This led one cinema owner, David Brun, to begin directing his movies, although generally low quality, the movies were a hit due to them being largely domestic. Brun created a studio in Meraw, which would be the first step in turning it into the film capital it is today. The next breakthrough for this industry was when television began being more common in households around the early 80s. The TV craze was heavily influenced by the growth of a wide variety of television programs. Modern day, the industry continues to grow, and, with the most popular genres being action, mystery, and comedy. Although the Pantsvillean industry is still prominent, Hansan films are equally as prevalent in Pantsville as films from various other countries.
