At school we were always told that the earliest civilization was that of Egypt, and that it just appeared out of nowhere about 3000 BC.

Since then, however, time has marched on. Today, because of newer archaeological discoveries, research, computers, electron microscope, DNA and MtDNA analysis, but especially because of the internet and the rapid distribution of knowledge to all by many different authorities, our view of early civilizations has changed somewhat.

The earliest developed area of the world was the 'Fertile Crescent' , (known as such because it was fertile land ), and the most-fertile part was the area that we know as Mesopotamia. This was the area that people and families gravitated to, and a country is just an enlarged group of families.

The earliest culture that we know of is that of Sumer, but don't take my word for it - check it out and follow it through.

Moreover , the first boundary which can be named a country was Iran and The first state consisting all of western Iran was founded by the Proto-Elamite with their capital at Susa & Anshan which lasted from around 3200 BC to 2700 BC, they were followed by Elam (2700 BC-550 BC) and Medes who created the first Iranian empire, which encompassed all of Iran and lasted from 728 to 550 BC, Cyrus The Great, founded the world's first superstate, stretching from Greece to India. The last reunification of Iran happened in 1501 AD by the Safavid dynasty. Iran was referred to in the West as Persia until March 21, 1935 when it was officially recognized as Iran which has been the local name. Iran has had roughly the same geographical boundaries since its inception and has been using Persian as the official language in addition to Iranian calendar.

You have a lot of options here. You can check old city directories for their names. There are also the 1920 and the 1930 Censuses (the 1930 has just recently been made available to researchers - 1940 & 1950 aren't available yet, census records aren't made public until 70 years have passed). If you're not sure they lived in you still have options. For example, if they lived in Chicago you should start out by checking Illinois census indices. Then, when/if you find your family name listed in an index, the index will tell you where (County, twp) to look. Then you can find the right roll of microfilm to search. You could also try checking death records, cemetery records, SSDI, etc. Or you could find a Surname messageboard like you can find at rootsweb.com. Find the board for your last name and post a query. Usgenweb.org is a great gateway site. There are just so many places to look for information.

Yes and no.

The Republicans had been the party of the common people until Teddy Roosevelt took office. He changed the party into an Anglophile imperial party, much like the Democrats had long been. So both parties became tools of the ruling class. His cousin, Franklin Roosevelt later changed the Democratic Party into a party of the common people, so the parties switched roles by the 1930s.

So the Republicans had promoted policies up to 1901 and somewhat beyond that improved the economy tremendously, starting with Lincoln's administration. Up until Lincoln, the economy had been declining badly for several decades. Some of the policies that contributed to economic prosperity were: 1. high import tariffs, which made it profitable for domestic businesses to pursue major manufacturing with mass production, which lowered prices; 2. low or no taxes on American citizens; 3. large-scale infrastructure projects, like the intercontinental railroad, which greatly increased the size of the market place and made improved conditions for trade across the country.

Such policies made the U.S. the world's most prosperous nation up until at least the early 1970s. Franklin Roosevelt and John Kennedy had promoted such policies, but most other administrations since 1901 rolled back such policies in favor of policies promoted by the British ruling class.

The boom of the 1920s was partly a result of the previous prosperity policies and partly due to market manipulation by the Anglophile Wall Street, which promoted speculation, building a large economic bubble, which began to burst in 1929. Similar bubbles have been building since the 1970s, which are now bursting.

Answer: They weren't important at all. Even today people exaggerate the influence that the federal government has over the economy and in the 1920's it had far less power and financial influence than it does now. Besides that, in the 1920's the presidency was comparatively less important in the government than it is now. Congress tended to shape legislation and policy with much less input from the president than is common now.

In the 1920's, things were really good in the US and around the world. The increase in companies was causing growth in the economy. With technology improving quickly, many people expected the economy to rise. During the 1920's, people received more income. So, they spent more and stock prices began to rise. Billions of dollars were invested in the stock market as people began expecting to make millions on the rising stock prices. Everything was well.

Many investors invested their money and any other money they had. As the prices continued to rise, some analysts began to warn that it can't last forever, but they were ignored. Finally, in October 1929, the buying craze began to stop, and was followed by an even wilder selling craze.

On Thursday, October 24, 1929, the bottom began to fall out. Stock prices began to fall and fall. Investors tried to sell their holdings. By the end of the day, the New York Stock Exchange had lost four billion dollars, and it took exchange clerks until five o'clock AM the next day to get everything organized. By the following Monday, the people finally realized what had happened AND THEY PANICKED! Thousands of people were left with no money. The worst part was that they were ordinary people. By the end of the year, stock values had dropped by billions of dollars.

The U.S. issued The Emergency Quota Act of 1921 which limited the total number of immigrants allowed into the country. It also favored immigrants from western Europe.
