The Great Depression

What I already know about The Great Depression

The Great Depression started in the late 1920's and eventually finished in the early 1930's. 

 

Description of The Great Depression

The description of The Great Depression was that when the stock market crashed people, lost their jobs because the people didn't have enough money to buy essentials so the companies went broke.

Immediate effect of The Great Depression

Lots of people lost their jobs and some had to live in camps because they were evicted from their homes because they didn't have any money. 

Social Impact of The Great Depression

The social impact was that The Labor Party was established from the effects of The Great Depression because of the unemployment and the many Umployment Workers Union Meetings.

What Australians learned as a result of The Great Depression.

Australia learned that the bank was supposed to hold money but they didn't have enough to support the world with money.
