The term "gilded" refers to something that is covered with a thin layer of gold or appears attractive on the surface but is often deceptive or lacking in value underneath. The Gilded Age, a period in the late 19th century in the United States, reflects this concept as it was marked by rapid economic growth, industrialization, and ostentatious wealth, juxtaposed with social issues like poverty, corruption, and inequality. This era highlighted the stark contrast between the affluent lifestyles of the elite and the struggles of the working class, emphasizing the superficiality of wealth and the underlying societal problems.
