Answer:

overproduction of goods and the expansion of unbridled credit by banks.

Explanation:

The Great Depression of the 1930s was the largest recession in history and its causes were overproduction of goods and the expansion of unbridled credit by banks.

The American economy was experiencing a period of euphoria during the 1920s. The US had become the world's leading economic powerhouse and was the largest supplier of manufactures to Europe. In this scenario, banks have expanded their credit rampantly to sustain the increase in production. However, production increased in a way that there was not enough consumer market to dispose of the products. The businessmen lost the conditions to pay their loans to the banks and the financial system collapsed.

Currently, the Federal Reserve has regulatory mechanisms that aim to reduce the risk of unbridled expansion of bank credit, such as the collection of the compulsory deposit and monetary policy. However, it is not possible to say that the risk is non-existent. We live in a special moment where technology has positive impacts, but can also cause negative havoc. For example, virtual currencies, if not well regulated, can cause a new crisis.

Which statement does not accurately describe why Constantine chose Byzantium as his new capital?
liberstina [14]
The correct answer is D

Explanation:


the term "byzantine" derives from byzancio, an ancient greek colony founded by a man named byzas. located in the european region of the bosphorus (direct access between the black sea and the mediterranean), the site of byzantium was conceived at the beginning to serve as a point of transit and trade between europe and asia minor. in the year 330 ad, the roman emperor constantine i, chose byzantium as the site where the new roman capital, constantinople, would be erected. five years earlier, at the council of nicaea, constantine had established christianity as the official religion of rome (formerly considered a jewish sect of obscure origin). the citizens of constantinople and the rest of the eastern roman empire, strongly identified themselves as romans and christians, although many of them spoke greek and not latin.
