The Great Depression began primarily due to the Stock Market crash of October 1929, which eroded consumer and business confidence. This financial collapse was exacerbated by overproduction, high tariffs, and a banking crisis that led to widespread bank failures. The resulting decline in consumer spending and investment triggered massive unemployment and a severe contraction of the economy. Additionally, international factors, such as war debts and trade imbalances, further deepened the crisis.
