Was the depression unique to the US?

No, it had ripped through Germany starting in the early 1920s due to hyperinflation from its war reparations payments and spread from there. It finally hit the US when the combination of worldwide depression and the Dust Bowl overwhelmed the postwar boom economy that it had experienced since the end of the war.
