Republic economic depression of the Great Wars

During the Great Galactic War of 3,681 BBY–3,653 BBY, the Galactic Republic slid into a severe economic depression that confounded the government's efforts to fight in the conflict against the invading Sith Empire. After the conclusion of the war and the signing of the Treaty of Coruscant, the Republic found itself unable to rise out of the depression and was therefore hampered in its efforts to rebuild in the aftermath of the Great War. The depression continued throughout the Cold War and into the Second Great Galactic War.
