The term "Gilded Age" refers to the period in American history from the 1870s to about 1900, characterized by rapid economic growth, industrialization, and significant social changes. The name suggests a superficial glittering layer of prosperity that masked deeper issues such as widespread poverty, labor exploitation, and political corruption. Mark Twain and Charles Dudley Warner coined the term in their 1873 novel "The Gilded Age: A Tale of Today," highlighting the contrast between the era's apparent wealth and the underlying social problems.
