i can predict that the early 1920's the United States ecnonmic was good to be "Roaring". American people can used this money or sources to like baseball ,music, and band. American people were seen happy .But, on the October 29 1929 was Wall Street stock market crash "Black Tuesday" for Americans. Many people loss their jobs and unempoly people up to million and the ecnonmic rate dropped. Now have many people need to lived in the Hooverville.Hoover was the priesdent during that years.The 1930's the United States become a country goverment needed to spend more and more money for the ecnonmic.

The 1920's was a decade of change,entertanment ,(jazz,sports) women's rights and the opportunities increasing. ecnonmic prosperity, success,increased bussiness and weath .Also peaceful decade - no wars. Segregation and raciasm was still major part of society(esp in the south).

But,in 1929 the stock maket crashed and the whole enconomy crunbled.

The 1930s become a decade of depression, unempolyment ,poverty , homelessness, and major problem of Americans , but ,it was also a decades of starting to rebuild and trying to fix the problems of the Great Depression - FDR became president and enacted his New Deal programs.

The top 5 causes :
The Great Depression
 * 1) The stock market crash - (on the October 29 1929,black Tuesday ,lost more 40 billion dallor)
 * 2) Bank Failures - (over 1930's, 9000 banks were fail)
 * 3) Reduction in Purchasing Across the board - ( consumer stop purchasing items because people lost their jobs then the comapny don't need much worker for make the stuff then more and more worker lost their jobs )
 * 4) Policy with Europe - (U.S goverment increased more teaxs on import throught the Smoot-Hawley Tariff so less trade with foreign countries)
 * 5) Drought Condition - ( farmer could not pay their taxes because by the drought less rain for grow crop or plants so they sell their farm lost them farm tp the bank )
