Masja [62]3 years ago

Due to the fall in the stock market, there has been a decrease in consumer spending and investments. This was caused by a steep decline in industrial production and a rise in unemployment due to failed companies that fired their workers. After the fall in the first 10 months of 1930, 744 banks collapsed - 10 times more. In all, 9,000 banks collapsed during the decade of the 1930s. It is estimated that 4,000 banks failed only during one year in 1933. Until 1933, depositors lost $ 140 billion due to the failure of banks. This is too simplified to find out the decline in stock trading as a unique cause of the Great Depression. However, in 1932, when the country collapsed in the depths of the Great Depression and about 15 million people (more than 20% of the American population at that time) was unemployed.

What do you think about world war 2
Gala2k [10]

Answer: World War II, also known as the Second World War, was a global war that lasted from 1939 to 1945. The vast majority of the world's countries—including all the great powers—eventually formed two opposing military alliances: the Allies and the Axis. ~Wikipedia

Explanation: WWII was a cruel war. Well, all wars are cruel. This war brought a lot of fear to other nations of families. People lost many of their family members. It was very tragic to lose just brave men and women (nurses). That is why we celebrate it at Memorial Day to honor those who risked their lives for our country.
