Answer:

Answer below

Explanation:

When a singular and a plural subject are joined by either/or and neither/nor, the main rule applied here is always use the verb form according to the form of the closest subject. If the closest subject is singular, then use a singular verb. If the closest subject is plural, use a plural verb.  

With the given compound subject, an example sentence would be:

Neither Tommy nor his dancers are informed about the changes of tomorrow's presentation. Notice that the verb used is "are", because the closest subject is the word "dancers".

Based on the tories which of these seems to have been a common occurence during the great depression
elena-s [515]

Answer:

The Great Depression was the severe collapse of entire national economies in all major industrialized countries that began in 1929, and was manifested, among other things, by the collapse of a number of economic entities, massive unemployment and deflation. The simultaneity of the crisis in various areas of the national economy was enhanced by the growing intertwining of individual parts of the economy as well as the economies of different countries and the interconnectedness of financial flows and increased mobility of capital, but also the lack of certain elements of market regulation.

Initially, a slight decline in the growth of the U.S. economy led to a speculative overvaluation of the stock and other securities market in October 1929 to collapse. This led to a reversal of capital flows. Capital, which had been invested in other national economies in previous years, was quickly withdrawn. In Europe (but also in other countries of the world), this withdrawal of capital has caused the most severe forms of crisis in their already weak economies. Throughout the chain of events, there has been massive unemployment and a huge drop in international trade.
