The correct answer is bank holiday.

Only 2 short days after his inauguration, President FDR implemented a bank holiday. This would close all banks in the United States for four days. The reasoning behind this were the high amount of banks that were running out of currency (paper money) to give to customers.

Considering that the economy was taking a turn for the worse daily, people wanted to get their money out of banks immediately. However the bank did not have enough money to give to all these individuals coming in at one time. This was due to a series of bad loans given out to individuals who could not pay the banks back.

Roosevelt's goal in closing banks was to give currency to them so that when they reopen they would not be forced to close again. Along with this, the federal government investigated what banks were spending/loaning money recklessly. These banks would then be monitored by the federal government for an extended period of time.

Why were Egypt's pharaohs unusually powerful rulers
allsm [11]
The concept of separation between religion and state wasn't valued in Ancient Egypt. Therefore, the two were heavily interconnected. 
One of the traditions of the religion of the Ancient Egyptians was that the Pharaoh was the living embodiment of the god Horus, who was believed to be a god of birthright, among other things. After the Pharaoh's death, he/she was identified with the god of the Underworld, Osiris. Thus, the living ruler was divine, and his word was the word of the gods.
