Spanish term or phrase: the same that would remain for many decades.

Hola a todos

Estoy corrigiendo una traducción y hay una oración que no se si está bien. Qué les parece?

Español:

... y las políticas del estado que cada uno implementó le fueron dando al país características propias que iban a perdurar por muchas decadas.

Inglés:

... and the national policies that each implemented gave the country its own features, the same that would remain
for many decades.

Esa última oración, les suena bien? (the same that would remain..)

Gracias

Please read would instead of will. And while we're on the corrections, the sentence should read: Not so keen on endure for characteristics here.
