MAIN ROOM

Much of the economic growth during this period was due to the automobile industry. Carmaker Henry Ford introduced a series of technological and management innovations to his fledgling automobile business. This idea of mass production allows people from all kinds of backgrounds to buy cars. The improvement of efficiency combined with moving assembly lines reduces the time it takes to manufacture. The car also caused economic growth in other areas such as wood and road-construction.
