The 1920s are known as the Roaring Twenties because it was a period of rapid economic and social transformation.

Answer:

The Roaring Twenties is the term that indicates an economic boom that took place from the mid-1920s and ended with the stock market crash on October 29, 1929.

The "roaring twenties" was characterized by economic, social, artistic and cultural dynamics. The term covers several subject areas, but is mostly used in economics. Often, it was the economic success that made for second-level progress, such as technology, science, art and literature.
