    This video teaches you about the Great Depression. So, everybody knows that the Great Depression started with the stock market crash in 1929, right? Not exactly. The Depression happened after the stock market crash, but wasn’t caused by the crash. This video will teach you about how the Depression started, what Herbert Hoover tried to do to fix it, and why those efforts failed.
