Explanation:

The period known as the Gilded Age was characterized by extreme materialism and political corruption in the United States. This spanned the period from 1870 to 1890. The term was derived from the book The Gilded Age: A Tale of Today (1873), written by Mark Twain and Charles Dudley Warner.
