Answer:
Hooverville is a term that appeared in the USA in the early 1930s, which referred to small settlements consisting of tents and shacks that thousands of Americans were forced to live in after they lost their homes and jobs as a result of the Great Depression.
The name of these settlements was given “in honor” of Herbert Hoover, the US president, elected shortly before the crisis, who held office for most of his life, whose government was accused by many sections of the population of the crisis. These settlements thus demonstrated a notorious resentment on the part of the American people towards their rulers, especially their President, whom they blamed for their economic situation and their lack of opportunities.
