I try to learn more in depth about topics that interest me. I was reading about the Great Depression, but it is so hard to understand for me what exactly cause it, as I read it, it feels like a mix of fancy words that don’t tell me much (likely due to my lack of knowledge and english not being my 1st language). So, could anyone explain me in simple words what exactly cause the Great Depression?

One of the causes of the great depression that has not been mentioned is the collapse of farm prices in the 1920’s. 30 percent of the US. population lived on farms in the 1920’s. The great depression in rural America really started with the collapse of farm prices in 1920 – 1921. [https://www.ushistory.org/us/49c.asp](https://www.ushistory.org/us/49c.asp)
