The correct answer is Many people could not pay what they owed to banks.

During the 1920's, banks allowed citizens to take out significant loans in order to buy consumer goods and stocks. This risky investment strategy failed at the end of the 1920's, culminating in the beginning of the Great Depression. One of the biggest causes of this economic depression was the Stock Market Crash of 1929. This resulted in thousands of people losing their life savings in stocks. The significant drop in stock prices resulted in citizens having very little actual cash to give back to banks. Instead, they had stocks that were essentially worthless. This is why banks struggled and utlimately thousands failed during the 1930's.

What was missing from the 100 settlers of jamestown as they disembarked?
qaws [65]

The correct answer is women.

The initially settling of Jamestown consisted of roughly 100 men who saw the ability to colonize in the New World as a means to increase their personal wealth. These men went to the New World in search of gold and other resources that would allow them to be rich. Along with this, men were needed in order to perform the hard manual labor needed to build homes and the protection necessary to keep the colonists from being killed by Native Americans.

At this time, women rarely did this type of manual labor due to the social norms of the era. This helps to understand why women were absent from this trip.
