Most studies of the Great Depression focus on the United States, but the US was only one part of the puzzle. When the US Stock Market collapsed in 1929, it set off a chain reaction throughout the world. Europe was particularly hard hit as they were still recovering from the
Great War.
Based on at least two sources, primary and secondary (not your eText) examine how hyperinflation of the Great Depression affected
democracies in Europe. How did the economic circumstances affect national and international relationships? Describe what everyday
life was like for most people during the Great Depression. Consider, if you lived during this period, how would you have survived?
