Themes of the Gilded Age:
1. Industrialism: U.S. became the world’s most powerful economy by 1890s: railroads, steel, oil,
electricity, banking – America was transformed from an agrarian nation to an urban nation
between 1865 and 1920.
2. Politics: hard vs. soft money ('70s & '90s); tariff ('80s); corruption due to greed, patronage &
trusts (throughout late 19th c.)

People believe that as they were sinners, God had sent them the Bubonic plague that killed millions of people in Asia and Europe.
Historians think that in reality, the Black Death or Bubonic plague originated in Central Asia or Eastern Asia, and arrived in Europe due to trade. The firsts case were identified in Crimea in 1347. From then on, black rats that lived in the ships where products were transported, easily spread the disease all over Europe killing millions of people.

Holika (Sanskrit: होलिका), sometimes also known as Simhika was a demoness in scriptures, who was burnt. She was the sister of King Hiranyakashipu and aunt of Prahlad. The story of Holika Dahan (Holika's death) signifies the triumph of good over evil.
