Gangsters: During the 1920's, there was Al Capone, the baddest and most wanted man in Chicago. One thing there might be in common for Al Capone and in The Great Gatsby is that Gatsby is the number one, richest man and Al Capone is number one most wanted, they are both number one in their own ways. In the 1920's in America, there was no alcohol, imagine America with no alcohol today, it would be absolute chaos and a lot of men would go insane doing things they should not, in the 1920's they felt the same way and that is a part of Al Capone's job. He would deal with all types of illegal matters and smuggling alcohol in every corner of America was one of them. Everybody went through a tough time and the same with Gatsby not everyone would know him if he was did not have his money. People would not know Al Capone if it were not for his accomplishments, either good or no good.
