1) Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC)
2) Lake Placid Olympics
3) Prohibition
The CCC peaks my interest because it both employed many men across the country, and got some of the National Parks to where they are today. The Lake Placid Olympics are interesting because in grief-stricken time, the olympics brought people from all over the world together and most importantly gave moral to the people. Finally the prohibition. The prohibition is when organized crime really took off in the US. Bars and then the mod took control of the alcohol industry and kept it going despite the ban. this gave the mod a following and carried over after the ban was lifted.
