Explanation

The Depression spread as Americans bought fewer goods from other countries, reducing those countries’ export income. Many countries also raised tariffs, making international trade shrink further. Finally, Americans and U.S. banks demanded repayment of loans made to European nations, worsening financial problems there. The movement of jobless Americans overseas was not a major cause.
