Germany after treaty of Versailles

After the Treaty of Versailles, Germany lost many men, the mainland and its colonial possessions. Not only that, they also reduced the number of men, the fleet and banned military recruitment.

The harsh economic conditions of Germany after the war began to worry because the German people saw as their country's money was being lost little by little to no particular purpose. Unemployment was increasing gradually until in 1923 one in four Germans were without work. Germany after being so bad economically asked for a reprieve of debt in order to recover and continue to pay, as one of the points of the treaty of Versailles was that Germany had to pay all damage caused to other countries because of that economic status was not good because it did not have the money to pay to other countries and also to continue to bring his country. When asked for the postponement on other countries (France, Belgium and Italy) answered his request trying to conquer a part of Germany. This made the German nationalists hold out no longer and revealed against their own allies and Weimer republic.

The Weimar Republic was created after the abdication of Kaiser Wilhelm II, the end of the war and the demise of the Second Reich. This republic was put to political tensions, economic and social for about 15 years that was what hard. During this republic were presidents Elbert in the years 1918 - 1925 and 1925 and Hinderbung during 1934.
This republic was formed by a regime which gave the President the power to govern in an emergency.
The Weimar Republic was faced with great difficulties that eventually caused its demise.
The first difficulty faced was the fragile political base after it had been created as it was supported by liberal Catholics who saw that the economy was wrong withdrew their support for republican institutions.
The second difficulty that presented itself was that ubo to face Republican administrations since Germany was required to pay the vendecores of the first world war.
The third difficulty was the inability to enlist the support of citizens and that these were that were losing money and that the country was getting worse situations that did not support this republic.
The crash of 1929 destroyed the prestige available to republican institutions. Gradually the country was falling further and in 1931 were more than 8 million unemployed who were in Germany.
Finally, on January 30, 1933 Hindenburg appointed Hitler head of government soon after which democracy and thus suppress the republic of Weimar.
