The gilded age was a historical period experienced primarily in which region of the united states? far west midwest north south

The correct answer is north.

This was a period of rapid industrialization which was common in the northern parts of United States of America. It's called gilded because like gilded things, it seemed as if things were going great but that was just a thin layer that was covering a plethora of various social and economic issues. The south didn't experience this very much because they were rather traditionally oriented in their business endeavors and manufacture so they experience the problems of the gilded age as much as the northern parts did.
