While American cities prospered, however, the overproduction of agricultural produce created widespread financial despair among

American farmers throughout the decade, which was later blamed as one of the key factors that led to the 1929 stock market crash.

Answer: True

Explanation: The Wall Street Crash of 1929 was a major stock market crash that occurred in 1929. It started in September and ended late in October, when share prices on the New York Stock Exchange collapsed. It remains the most devastating stock market crash in the history of the United States, considering how long it lasted and the full extent of its aftereffects.

Agricultural production was booming and there were good harvests in 1928 that had built up a mass of about 250 million bushels of wheat when 1929 opened. By May of the same year, there was also a winter-wheat crop of 560 million bushels ready for harvest in the Mississippi Valley. This oversupply caused a drop in wheat prices so heavy that the net incomes of the farming population from wheat were a cause for despair. This was one of the major causes of the 1929 market crash.

What is Virginia had not seceded from the Union? Would this have affected the war? Why or Why not?
Ne4ueva [31]
Yes it would have because if Virginia had rejected secession, the prospect of Lee in command of Union forces rather than Confederate forces would have presented major problems for the Confederacy. The South would have lost a major economic and political asset, the state of West Virginia would never have been created, the war would almost certainly have been shorter. Interestingly, such circumstances might cast some doubts on how determined the North would have been to end slavery permanently.
