MCMXXIV
MCMXXIV is the Roman numeral representation of the year 1924. This year falls within the interwar period, a time of significant political and social change following World War I. In the United States, 1924 saw the passage of the Immigration Act, which established strict quotas for immigration, and the Teapot Dome scandal, a major political corruption case involving President Calvin Coolidge's administration. The economy in many parts of the world was still recovering from the war, though some nations experienced periods of growth. Globally, political landscapes continued to shift, with the formation of new governments and ongoing diplomatic efforts. The arts and culture also saw developments, with the burgeoning jazz age in full swing and artistic movements like Surrealism gaining traction. The Olympic Games were held in Paris that year, marking a significant international sporting event. The year 1924 is a notable point in early 20th-century history, reflecting the complex dynamics of a world in transition.
