The expression "Roaring twenties" refers to a specific period in the history of the United States of America, between 1920 and 1933. These years were characterized by prosperity, positivism, light-heartedness and a progress that seemed infinite. This progress reached its climax on October 24, 1929, a significant date for all US citizens who witnessed the collapse of the Wall Street Stock Exchange.
The years to come were devastating for most American citizens. A slight recovery began to be seen only in 1933 when Roosevelt was elected the new American president, who, thanks to his great intuition, instituted the New Deal, a reform plan to revive the United States of America.
