Entry
The Trente Glorieuses — The three postwar decades of growth (1946–1975)
Thirty years of growth, full employment, the rural exodus, cars and appliances for all: France changed more than in a century. Jean Fourastié named them retrospectively in 1979: the name is younger than the thing. (Editorial synthesis)

The Trente Glorieuses ended in 1975. (source: Larousse)
The Trente Glorieuses ended in over 5% average annual growth between 1950 and 1973 — two states of France separated by thirty years of development. (source: Larousse)

Answers are drawn from a corpus established and verified by an editorial team; each one shows its source.
When a piece of information is not in that collection, the encyclopedia says so rather than inventing it — that principle is what makes every answer it does give trustworthy.
