The first was the great bubonic plague which happened in 1665. This was the last great epidemic of the plague which swept through London and killed over 100 000 people which was more than 20% of the population of the time. It also swept through many parts of Southern England and killed even more if we count those victims too.

The second was the Great Fire of London which happened less than a year later in 1966. The fire was so huge that it burned down the homes of approximately 70 000 people, which is important because the whole population of the city was 80 000. Over 13 000 houses were burned to the ground as well as almost a 100 churches.

Which group experienced an early depression in the 1920s?

Andrej [43]

It was the Farmers who were the first ones to experience the early depression in the 1920s.

Further Explanation:-

The Great Depression is considered the worst economic shutdown in the history of the United States. This economic decline started in the year 1929 and went on to the later stages of the 1930s. The Crash of the Stock Market was the reason which brought this great depression. By the year 1933, there were around 25% of people in the United States were unemployed and the majority of banks in the United States went out of Business.

It was the farmers who were the most affected by this economic shutdown caused by the Great depression. Prices of their crops were falling year after year and states of Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas suffered severe drought which also caused dust storms. In the initial stages of the 1930s, the majority of farmers went bankrupt and because of that, they were not able to pay their loans and lost their farms. Corns that were grown by farmers became so cheap that instead of coal, people started burning corn to make their food. Many farmers even formed farmers Union but all went in vain as it did not have any effect on Prices.
