What was society like in the 1920's?

Answer 1

Extreme conservative. But then became the roaring twenties, Jazz music, swing, prohibition started and the speak easy was a place that served alcohol illegally but everyone was there drinking and dancing. It was a wild time in history, in the cities east and midwest and south. Travel was expanding with industry for trucks and ships, and cars manufactures were expanding. Gambling was a big thing as well as the stock market was flourishing in America as well. Movie industry grew with silent films. Radio was a big deal then. The government was getting corrupt in America at that very time not because of the Mafia, they were a street people and that was evident but the real mafia was in the positions of our government, they made deals with the Mafia to ship the alcohol products and collect the money under the table, while the mafia took the blame and the bullets.

Answer 3

Like China is in present day.

Rising to power, and people figuring out new innovating ideas and inventons.

Once something was invented, everyone wanted it. That is why it is calld sometimes the "blooming 20'S"

Present time China is like the United States was in the 1920. Population is curious and determined.

Answer 4

Al Capone was a big figure back then. Prohibition was in effect and obviously nobody was happy about that. People were partying in underground bars that were amidst hidden tunnels where passwords were required. Women finally realized that they didn't have to abide by men's rules, so they dressed like hotties and danced like maniacs. Depending on who you were and how you lived, it was the first glimpse of debauchery in modern times. That must've been a good time for them.
