Who ruled Germany before Hitler? Weimar Republic (1918-1933)

Become a Simple History member: kzread.info...
Support us on Patreon: / simplehistory
There is far more to 1919-1939 Germany than it simply being a prelude to Hitler’s rise to power. As financial ruin, military defeat, and a humiliating treaty blew in gales, Germans pushed for a republican system of government, and a new constitution to lift them off their knees. It was a period of not only struggle as hyperinflation and reparations cut holes into longcoats, but also of steady recovery as the nation launched itself once more onto the world market, as well as creative ingenuity that would continue to shape our understanding of modernity. Watch the political obstacles that had faced the likes of Ebert and Stresemann, the devastating impact of the Great Depression, and the dramatic dissolution of the republic with all its vibrant cultural iconography.

    @@beyondobscure yes. Hitler was Europe's second fascist dictator. Mussolini was the first. Even though he was a staunch socialist in his youth, he eventually realized that socialism sucked and started the Italian fascist movement that would be the countries government for the next two decades. Mussolini ended up inspiring Hitler to take on a similar form and would be the early stages of what would become the second world war.

    The Weimar Republic, officially named the German Reich, was the government of Germany from 1918 to 1933, during which it was a constitutional federal republic for the first time in history; hence it is also referred to, and unofficially proclaimed itself, as the German Republic. The nation's informal name is derived from the city of Weimar, which hosted the constituent assembly that established its government. In English, the nation was usually simply called "Germany," with "Weimar Republic" not commonly used until the 1930s.

    Fun fact: When the red army tried to take the old territories of the Russian empire, they tried using Poland as a bridge to export the communist cause to Germany. But they underestimated the Poles and were pushed back and finally realizing they couldn’t take each other they both drew up the 1921 treaty.

Our living conditions have no parallels to pre WW2 Germany, inflation or not we aren't spending $120 on a loaf of WonderBread. The only true parallel to be made is the human tendency towards extremism during times of discontent, but again no parallels to Germany as today's extremism is limp-wristed even where it is organized; actions are scale to needs and despite what many would claim in their exaggerations, survival is not at stake, rather preferences and alleged rights.

I researched further, apparently there were seven weak parties, which would have had the same effect ss a number of independents. The government couldn’t decide on anything.

He also had post war access to the 485 tons (yeah, tons) of German government documents captured and preserved by the US Army when they reached Berlin.
