      The "why" no longer matters if you have to avoid saying the NAME of a person who did a thing or else you will be punished. And the arguement that it is because of the ads doesn't hold up when you consider the fact the same companies will buy ad-time on TV where They will dedicate an entire episode talking about the same person and use their name at least 30-40 times in an hour. But UA-cam won't let you say that name once in a 4min video.

      I know its a joke, but I have to correct you a little:
      It was not the Hyperinflation that triggered the economic crisis of the Weimar Republic but actually the Deflation of the late 20s and early 30s.
      The conservative government, being shocked by the Great Depression and remembering the hyperinflation opted to save money during the crisis, which absolutely killed the economy.
      So, in the end, the money printer wasn't the problem, but rather not using it at the right time.

    The 2 big factors in why it failed:

      Probably yes but not for the reason most believe.
      I feel like a lot of people forget that the importance given to the treaty is in itself Nazi propaganda... or more exactly DNVP propaganda. The DNVP were the ones who put importance into the treaty and directly attempted to overthrow the Young plan despite it being beneficial for Germany. It incidentally ended up being said campaing which revived the NSDAP and made the nazis the major right wing party over the DNVP because the businessmen lost all trust in the DNVP and realized Hitler was more charismatic.
      Still, I think the major factor is the great depression and the Z doing nothing about and the SDP deciding to compromise on doing nothing. But the versailles treaty had the effect of leading to the DNVP shooting itself on the foot and leading to the rise of Hitler.

    From what I understand of history, Germany wasn't guilty of causing WWI any more than Britain and France were guilty of causing WWII by "joining" their ally Poland in war. Germany, in WWI, was allied to Austria-Hungary, so when they declared war, Germany was bound to join them. When Poland was threatened by Germany, Britain and France "declared war" on Germany, though did absolutely nothing to stop them. Britain and France abandoned Poland but remained at war with Germany.

    • @Jonathold
      @Jonathold Рік тому +4

      And to be fair, the treaty of Versailles was absolutely and wholly unjust, punishing Germany (and Austria-Hungary) for the war in a way that completely destroyed their economy to the point of ruin, and even removed the German monarch, causing the instability that led to the Weimar Republic. I'm not sure what the Western Powers hoped to accomplish by destroying the German state (by the way Germany wasn't even invited to the peace negotiations in WWI), but it's not surprising to me that extremism took hold. Germans were impoverished, starving, and desperate following the "Great War." Any people in such a situation would be looking not only for someone to blame, but for a solution. All the events that followed, whether intended or not, are as much the fault of the Western Allies as they are the Nazi Party. The Nazi's wouldn't have existed except for the injustices done to Germany after WWI.

    • @Jack29245
      @Jack29245 Рік тому +3

      Germany promised Austria that they would back them no matter what, this blank check issue is a big part of why Germany gets blamed. If Austria wasn't told it could do whatever it wanted and still have German protection it may not have been bold enough to risk war with Russia by invading Serbia. Also, Germany was at the heart of many of the pre-war build-ups, like Wilhelm dramatically increased tensions between Britain and Germany during the Anglo-German Naval Arms Race which is part of the reason the alliance systems formed the way they did. Then the matter of the peace treaty, if you look at the treaty of Brest-Litovsk, Germany enforced much harsher conditions on Russia than the allies enforced on Germany so it's a little hard to be sympathetic there. There wasn't much reason to invite Germany to the peace conference in fact doing so may have made the problem worse, the only difference between the peace treaty and an unconditional surrender was words, if the German government had been invited to the peace conference nothing would have changed and their reputation at home may have tanked even further.
