    The Great Depression was a global economic downturn from 1929-1933 that impacted countries differently. In the US, over 13,000 companies and 10,000 banks went bankrupt as unemployment rose to over 12 million. Major stock market crashes on "Black Thursday" and "Black Tuesday" in October 1929 significantly contributed to the Depression. Industries and agriculture declined by 50% in both the US and Europe during this challenging economic period.
