The America that we know of today, money and power, was first recognized during the 1920’s. It was during this decade that America became the world power we all live in today. This feat could not have been achieved without the new technologies being invented. They boosted our economy and we became the most modernized country on the planet. Arguably the most important invention of them all was the car. Henry Ford’s Model T was the best on the market. By 1927 Henry Ford had sold over 15 million Model T’s. Henry Ford was able to produce all of these cars using a new revolutionary technique called the assembly line. Roads and Highways had to be constructed and the continued production of automobiles, because of this millions of jobs were created. Another key invention was the invention of the radio. Every home in America had a radio. Also introduced during the roaring twenties was film production. The first movie ever made was produced in the year of 1922. In 1927 Charles A. Lindbergh was the first to fly across the ocean in the Spirit of St Louis. Because of all these inventions and new ideas, people from the rural areas moved to the cities hoping to make it big. Our economy boomed and America would never be the same. Our America was realized during the roaring twenties and it laid the foundation for the greater future.
