Throughout the Great Depression, the Soviet Union's isolation and removal from the capitalist system meant that its industrial production grew by more than 300 percent between 1929 and 1938, compared to the relatively low figures across the rest of Europe and the U.S. The Soviet Union was the only country of those listed whose industrial output did not fall in the years immediately following the Wall Street Crash of 1929. The U.S. and Germany, conversely, saw industrial production fall by 45 and 41 percent, respectively, although they had the fourth and second highest growth rates of the period between 1932 and 1938.
