When did the international economy collapse and why- durning the great depression

1 answer:

6 0

Many people during the roaring 20s had lots of money and decided to start buying stocks. More and more people bought the stocks until they were valued more than their actual worth. Americans poured their money, sometimes their life savings, into stocks. In October of 1929, the booming American economy came to an abrupt end as the US stock market crashed. Panicky investors tried to sell their stocks. Banks had made loans that people could not repay. Depositors grew nervous about their money and tried to withdraw it all from the banks, leading to bank failures. Businesses went broke, once-busy factories closed, and millions of workers lost their jobs.

This affected other nations because once America lost it's prosperity and money, they no longer traded. Due to bank failures and factories closures, America did less business overseas, spreading the Great Depression all over.

Hope this helped ^.^
ps, this is from my notes. :)

How effective was the roving attack on the British after Concord?

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

For the British, 73 were killed, 174 were wounded, and 26 were missing. While the colonists lost many minutemen, the Battles of Lexington and Concord were considered a major military victory and displayed to the British and King George III that unjust behavior would not be tolerated in America.

Explanation:

The first battle of the war, Lexington marked the beginning of the American Revolution. Although Lexington and Concord were considered British military victories, they gave a moral boost to the American colonists. On the night of April 18, 1775, hundreds of British troops marched from Boston to nearby Concord in order to seize an arms cache. Paul Revere and other riders sounded the alarm, and colonial militiamen began mobilizing to intercept the Redcoat column.

Josephine: *louise Please, sit down before you read this, dear.

Louise: *richards *josephine What is going on??

Richards: *louise Please keep in mind we are here for you, no matter what.

Josephine: *louise Something happened to the train...

Richards: *louise It's a tragedy, and we are deeply sorry.

Louise: *richards *josephine Oh my God! Brently is gone...

Louise: My husband has passed away... But why don't I feel sad?

Nothing has changed. The world is still turning.

Oh my! I just realized... I'm free to do whatever I want!

Josephine: *louise Are you alright?? Talk to me!

Louise: *josephine I'm fine! Leave me alone!

Brently: *richards *josephine *louise Guys, have you heard about the accident? It could have been me!

Richards: *brently Wait, what?!

Josephine: *brently You're alive??

*louise Sis? Sis??!!

Explanation:

Kate Chopin was an American author who lived from 1850 to 1904. Her stories were often controversial due to their feminist take and daring female characters.

In "Story of an Hour," a misunderstanding leads Louise Mallard to a revelation. Her sister and a friend let her know that her husband has died in a train accident. However, instead of feeling sad, Louise realizes she is finally her own woman. She does not have to ask anything or justify herself to her husband. She can do whatever she wants. But, in the end, her husband appears at home, very much alive. Louise ends up dying due to a heart condition she has.

NOTE: I used an asterisk (*) where the symbol for "at" on tweets should have been. Brainly wouldn't let me post the answer otherwise.
