When the Great Depression hit, Herbert Hoover was president. As an advocate of laissez faire economics, he felt that having the government interfere with the economy would have negative results.

Overall, Hoover is remembered negatively by the American public, as he did not do enough to help America during this time.
This is why when he ran for re-election he lost to Franklin D. Roosevelt. Once in office, FDR implemented the "New Deal." This economic program was based around creating government agencies that would help decrease unemployment and improve American society in general. Along with this, FDR set up market regulations (like the Securities and Exchange Commission) to ensure that there is never another crash in wall street like the one in 1929.
The Bronze Age is a time period that shows the ability of ancient cultures to create weapons and artifacts made from copper and bronze. This time period falls in between the Stone Age and the Iron Age. Its significance relies in its advancements it provided for civilization.
