Hernando de Soto was a Spanish explorer who led the first European expedition deep into the territory of today's United States. Historians worked a lot to trace the route of his expedition. It started in 1539. in Florida: de Soto landed his ships in Tampa Bay. In 1540., they continued to move north-east, through today's Georgia, having heard the gold being mined "towards the sun's rising". The expedition continued trough present-day South Carolina and then to north, across Appalachian Mounthains of North Carolina, and after that entered Tennessee. In 1941. de Soto and his expedition turned westwards, and reached river Mississippi. De Soto was the first European man that crossed Mississippi. They continued trough modern-day Arkansas, Oklahoma and Texas, and later returned to Mississippi. De Soto died in 1942.

The problem with the Great Depression of 1929 and the subsequent years
was that actually government did nothing to intervene. President Herbert
Hoover believed that government should interfere and that the market
will balance itself out. That is one of the reasons that President
Roosevelt won with a landslide with his promise of the New Deal.
In
2008 the government took a much active role in combating the Great
Recession. For example, the government even bailed out some banks that
were in trouble as well as provided emergency help. They also proposed
and passed many laws that would help prevent this kind of situation in
the future.
