History
The Economic Miracle of Ochomogo refers to the unprecedented economic growth between 1949 and 1980 that the Costa Rican economy underwent after the great economic and social reforms imposed by the Founding Junta of the Second Republic in 1949 as the aftermath of the 1948 Costa Rican Civil War. During this period, life expectancy nearly doubled, from 47 to 73 years.
