Question

How did France avoid the worst of the Depression?

What standard did both countries hold onto? How did it affect each country?



How long did it take for each country to get out of the depression?

Answer 1

the depression was less severe and shorter, often ending by 1931. Those countries did not have the banking and financial crises that the United States did, and most left the gold standard earlier than the United States.

Sorry, I don't know the answer for the 2nd question.

It took them more than a decade.
