The Great Depression lasted so long primarily due to a combination of factors, including the Stock Market crash of 1929, weaknesses in the banking system, reduced consumer spending, and high unemployment rates. These economic challenges were exacerbated by the global nature of the depression and policy mistakes made by governments around the world. It took time for economies to recover and for policies such as the New Deal in the United States to have an impact.

Why are flashbulb memories so long-lasting?

Flashbulb memories are a type of long-term memory that normally involves an extremely emotional event. One theory proposes that flashbulb memories last so long because of the physiology of the brain. The amygdala is responsible for emotion. The hippocampus is involved in long-term memories. It just so happens that these regions are very close in proximity with each other. Memories with strong emotions tie these two regions together, thus resulting in a longer-lasting memory.
