After the Civil War, the number of millionaires in the United States increased significantly due to rapid industrialization and economic expansion. By the 1890s, estimates suggest there were about 4,000 millionaires in the U.S. This period saw the rise of wealthy industrialists and entrepreneurs, particularly in sectors like railroads and steel, contributing to the growth of a new affluent class.
