The Gilded Age was characterized by really fast industrial and economic growth, from the 1870s to the 1900s. It was named after Mark Twain's and Charles Dudley Warner's novel <em>The Gilded Age: A Tale of Today</em>, which satirically describes a difficult period of living, covered and hidden with gold gilding.
The rapid expansion of industrialization was accompanied by a huge advance in transportation (railways), technologies and manufacturing (heavy industry, factories, coal mining), causing huge expansion of immigration from Europe to America, high real wage growth and individual wealth. During these years, the U.S. economy had the fastest rate of growth, with high GDP, capital formation, real wage, etc.
Immigrants like the Irish, Scottish and others were flooding the U.S. the Irish were especially discriminated against because there were so much Irish coming into the U.S. in hopes of food and work, there weren't that much jobs available so lots of Irish weren't even getting what they were looking for in the U.S. in the first place and they were looked down upon. But hey, we have Saint Patrick's day now so jokes on Americans haha.
