The Weimar Republic (1919 - 1933)
These parties all embrace freedom and democracy. That is why we say that they belong to the political center.

  • There were also political parties that hated democracy, for example:

  • communists (who wanted a country like the Soviet Union)
  • nationalists (who wanted Germany to be a strong empire again)

  • These undemocratic groups we call extremists.

The Stab-in-the-back Myth
a story created by extremist right nationalists:

The German army did not lose WW1.
Germany was betrayed by democratic politicians who signed the Armistice and later the Treaty of Versailles.

Hitler also believed 
that communists and especially the Jews
were part of this plot against Germany and its army.

Hitler in politics

In 1919 Hitler joined a nationalistic party, the Deutsche Arbeiter Partei (DAP)


Slide 25 - Tekstslide

Hitler in politics

The DAP was
- anti democratic
- anti communist

Slide 26 - Tekstslide


Hitler turned out to be a good speaker.

He practised his expressions and gestures in front of a mirror.


Slide 27 - Tekstslide

In 1920 Hitler became the leader of the DAP. He changed the name into N.S.D.A.P. He also used the swastika as the party's new symbol


Slide 28 - Tekstslide

NSDAP: National-Sozialistische Deutsche Arbeiter Partei.

Or in short: the Nazi Party


Slide 29 - Tekstslide

1923: the Nazis try to seize power in Munich by force.
This is called a Putsch or Coup (staatsgreep)

Slide 30 - Tekstslide

Why a Putsch in 1923 ?

  • In 1922, Mussolini successfully seized power in Italy. Hitler was inspired by this.

  • In 1923, Germany suffered from a hyper inflation, causing millions of Germans to lose all their money. 
    Hitler believed that the                German people were now            so desperate that they                  would support him

Slide 31 - Tekstslide

Germany was forced to pay 132 billion goldmarks to the Allies

Slide 32 - Tekstslide

Causes and effects of the Hyperinflation of 1923

Slide 33 - Tekstslide

When Germany could not pay, the French occupied the Ruhr area to take resources as payment.

Slide 34 - Tekstslide

German miners went on strike. 
The Weimar government promised to pay their wages.

Slide 35 - Tekstslide

To keep paying the wages the government printed extra money.
Result: the value of the money decreased, causing inflation

Slide 36 - Tekstslide

In months the inflation spiralled out of control: hyper-inflation.
Money was worthless. People lost all their savings.

The Munich Putsch fails and Hitler is arrested. He is sentenced to 9 months imprisonment.

Slide 40 - Tekstslide

In prison, Hitler writes his book Mein Kampf (my struggle) in which he outlines his political ideas.

Slide 41 - Tekstslide

In short, his ideas and plans are:

  1. reverse the Treaty of Versailles
  2. rebuild Germany's armed forces
  3. unite Germany and Austria
  4. extend German territory into eastern Europe (Lebensraum)
  5. destroy communism
  6. the Germanic race (Aryan race)  is superior (= the Übermensch)
