The 1920s in the US and parts of Europe saw cultural and financial prosperity following World War I and the passage of women's suffrage. Women were given the right to vote and hold office. The entertainment industry boomed with dance clubs, vaudeville, and the growing popularity of jazz music. Art deco flourished with its bright colors and geometric designs. However, the economic good times were brief, as the stock market crash of 1929 led to the worldwide Great Depression of the 1930s.
