Decade - 1920s

The early twenties witnessed the arrival of the one-piece union suit. The union suit featured an athletically tapered look and came with long or short sleeves.

Yes. The first mass-produced pencils were made in Nuremberg, Germany in 1662, but people have been using graphite (the part of the pencil that actually writes) since 1564. William Monroe, a cabinetmaker in Concord, Massachusetts, made the first American wood pencils in 1812 as did another Concord area maker, famous author Henry David Thoreau. So yes, pencils were around in the 1920s. (http://www.pencils.com/pencil-information/pencil-history)

Of course!! That's a really impressive score, of course it also depends on what college your applying for, but it should get you to the college you want.

He got Germany out of the economic crisis, however when he died the people of Germany didn't know what to do as he was their 'superhero'. They had no one else to look to so they turned their attention to Hitler and the Nazi party.

The very high Dow in 1929 encouraged banks into investing heavily into stocks. Even many individual investors got into investing with the hope of fully exploiting this situation. When it began falling, people pulled their money out and even put cash "under the mattress". That started a domino effect. Things began to recover but it began slipping once more three years later and that was a worse loss. Over 30% were without jobs. It wasn't until WW2, that things began to recover with our entry into the war and large increase in government spending.

Japan shifted from a feudal agricultural nation to a more urban industrial economy. Universal education and new ideas from the West encouraged a vibrant system of political parties to emerge. Some young people adopted Western fashions and beliefs and began to question traditional Japanese values, such as obedience and respect for authority. More conservative Japanese resented these changes.

Nothing much. Today interest rates are higher.

Transportaion: the car was being further developed by Henry ford and the assembly line.

Calvin Coolidge was a very pro-business Republican. And although the Depression happened in the midst of his presidency, Herbert Hoover was also pro-business.

Musical theater in the 1920's to the 1940's was accomplished through the use of an orchestra. When the actors and actresses were performing live, they sang most of their parts or sang some of their parts and talked the rest of the time. Films were first silent and the words for the actors and actress were printed on the screen while an orchestra played live in the theater. Later, they found a way to make sound record on the movie film.

it burned down in 1949..i think

Drugs are really bad and can kill you or make you insane. Honestly, I am so NOT lying. It is very bad for your health and drugs(apart from medicine to make your health better) are illegal so do not ever take it. Alcohol is okay, as long as you don't overtake it so you better watch out.

A piece of candy did not cost much in the 1920s. Back then, there were small mom and pop stores that had pieces of candy (similar to some candies we buy in bags today) in a display where you could choose one or two, or however many you wanted, and they would put them all in a small paper bag. There were plenty of choices for a penny and some were two for a penny.

New appliances made in the 1920s was only available to rich people and did not speed things up at all. Also, debt was higher because of the amount of loans and such being provided for families.

Republicans were largely in favor of big business. But without adequate checks and balances (and the various safety nets which are somewhat in place, currently), this led to the stock market crash of 1929, and was followed by the populism of the next Democratic president, Franklin D. Roosevelt.

The Republicans basically believed in as little domestic government as possible and as little involvement as possible into the conflicts of Europe. Wilson who served the year of 1920 wanted the US to join the League of Nations and make a commitment to settling European disputes. I do not think he did much more than the Republicans to put controls on business, banking and finance,

The governments policy was to eliminate the aboriginal race by making aboriginal children marry white Australians when they get older. Due to this they thought that the aboriginal "gene" would eventually die out.

The Ponzi Scheme/ Pyramid Scheme Created by Charles Ponzi

this is just a short view as my time is restricted.

The Platt Amendment was not necessarily a good thing as it gave Cuba little or no independence. At the end of the Spanish- American War The United States insisted that Cuba include the Platt Amendment in their constitution or Cuba would not obtain control over their country. Keep in mind a treaty was signed giving Cuba complete independence from Spain. Cuba basically switched masters. These set of rules guidelines not only limited but tightly constricted "independent" Cuba. Cuban nationals were utterly against it. I think that no good came out of this amendment as it was later terminated due to the negativity it was drawing on the US and Cuban relationship. Cuba was basically a territory of the US as they made certain that Cuba could only have an relationship with them and no other mother country as it would pose a threat not on Cuba but on the US. They were completely selfish and inconsiderate as Cuba's economy could of grown out of the pockets of the US and come back to the rightful owner, Cuba.

In 1920 the only dictatorship among those countries was Russia.

In the United States, almost all 50 states. The Armenian genocide has been recognized all over the world and the Turkish people are denying their ancestor's wrong doings. Sooner or later they"ll have to admit it.
