The New Deal is the term used to refer to the economic policies and reforms executed by the administration of Franklin Delano Roosevelt, cousin of forever badass Theodore Roosevelt, in order to combat the aggravating economic situation in the United States caused by the Great Depression. Some of the policies implemented were Social Security, "bank holidays" to prevent a run on banks, gold was called in, and large number of government agencies were created with the goal of giving employment by building roads, bridges, parks and dams until the onset of World War II.
