The Great Depression By Meg Storer

What Makes this a significant in Australia’s history? The Great Depression's impact on Australian society was devastating.

The Great Depression's impact on Australian society was devastating. Without work and a steady income many people lost their homes and were forced to live in makeshift houses with poor heating and sanitation.

Who was involved in the great Depression? The Great Depression of the 1930s was an economic disaster that severely affected most nations of the world. Australia was one of the hardest-hit countries in the western world along with Canada and Germany.

When and where did the great Depression take place? The Great Depression started in 1929 and went until 1932 The great depression caused several upsets to the economical power and the social balance of Australia. Australia's government could no longer gain capital to ease the impacts of the great depression on the people nor could it borrow any more money from Britain. Unemployment rates soon flew high and people could not pay rents or get food for their families. They could not borrow from banks either because the banks also relied heavily upon overseas investment

I think the Great Depression has impacted Australia today because the Government made laws so Australia wouldn’t get in so much trouble again. They also taught Australia to save money. Do you think the great Depression has a impact on Australia today
