In 1931, following the creation by the Second Spanish Republic which prohibited any all reference to the monarchy, this club was renamed Club Deportivo Mallorca.
Even though major competitions and fixtures throughout Spain were interrupted due to the advent of Civil War in 1936, the team had a highly prosperous time, winning every championship they participated in and the football on the island was unaffected by the delays that were experienced across the nation. After the war ended and squads from Peninsula were soon to resume after which they were able to play again and the Second Division was inaugurated, comprised of five groups of eight players each.
It was during the Second Division during the Second Division that, on 22 September 1945, it was decided that the moment was right to say goodbye Buenos Aires Field and up sticks to Es Forti, a 16,000-maximum capacity stadium that would serve as home for more than 50 years and would undergo numerous expansions. The team of players such as forward Sebastian Pocovi, defender Saturnino Grech, and goalkeeper Antoni Ramallets defeated Jerez 3-1 in the first fixture of the new season on the same day, with Carlos Sanz scoring Es Forti's first goal in front of the packed terraces. The name Es Forti was short-lived however it was later renamed by the board, changing the stadium's name to Lluis Sitjar to honor the memory of the player who was responsible for the development of the field.
In the 1949-1950 time frame, the Balearic club was able to regain their "Real" name and changed it to Real Club Deportivo Mallorca

But, since Barcelona had also won their own league Mallorca played their counterparts in the 1998 Supercopa de Espana and won 3-1, accumulating for the first time in their history to win a major trophy. Barcelona's double win also meant Mallorca was able to participate in the 1998-99 UEFA Cup Winners' Cup, which was the final tournament of the competition and they lost the final 2-1 against Italian side S.S. Lazio at Villa Park.
