They wanted to present them as if they were gods. This was quite common in history and is a reason for example why pharaohs got pyramids built in their honor. The giant heads depicted their leaders as gods or someone who is in general larger than life itself. It was a sign of respect and others who would visit would also see this and know who they are dealing with. Such heads can still be found and examined which is important when trying to understand their ancient culture.

However, trying to help you, we can comment on some causes of the Great Depression so you can use them to put them in your acronym.

The main causes of the United States Great Depression were the following.

During the 1920s, the American people were living a period of economic prosperity known as the "Roaring 1920s." During this period, people buy all kinds of things, needed or not. They bought houses, cars, electro domestics, and more. However, most of these purchases were made on credit, generating a big debt. Another cause was the overproduction of goods. Then, the inaction on the part of the federal government to prevent or regulate these conditions.

The major cause that detonated the Great Depression was the United States Stock market crash of October 29, 1929. After this crash millions of Americans lost their jobs, banks declared bankruptcy, and thousands of companies broke.
