The 1920s were known worldwide as the Roaring Twenties, with a booming economy and an increasing liberalization of clothing, dancing, and society. With the prosperous economic situation, people performed more leisure activities, bought new clothes (which allowed women to show some skin), and invested in new architectural styles. In the United States, in particular, the Prohibition Era (in the 1920s) resulted in the mass growth of organized crime and bootlegging to get alcohol to the people. There was also a growth in forms of entertainment, with the motion picture industry and the radio becoming more common in people's homes.

The Great Depression started on October 29, 1929 and continued through much of the 1930s. It was not prevalent during the 1920s.
