It surprise how Stresemann manage to improve Germany in such a short span of time. He really deserve his peace Nobel Prize. P.S great video I throughly enjoyed it!!!
Brilliant. I've got my GCSEs in a couple of month, and had almost forgotten all of this. I've recently started revising, and had just got past this bit, when your video just helped me consolidate my knowledge. Great video as always!
So my video was well timed! I'll try and telepathically predict what topic you're going over again and make a video on that next! Hope your revision is going well :)
when i had watched 1 minute and 22 seconds into this video i started to tear up. you have taught me more about germany's road to tackle hyperinflation than my teacher ever has since september. i thought that i was dumb. but thanks to your videos my standards are now risen and i am aiming for an 8 in history. when i do get my 8 i will owe my grade to you. i really mean it.❤❤
@@Lumidon i did my exams last year and i got a 7 in history. obviously i didn’t get an 8 but i was really happy, my weakness was deffo the cold war paper
Thanks! It's awesome that my videos can help students in Germany too! Außerdem, ihr hat einen zweisprachigen Geschichtstest in Deutschland?! Oder habe ich das falsch gelesen?
I didnt get to do history after year 11 unfortunately , because I was 1 mark off a 6 after remarking my exam papers. I still watch these videos because they are really informative and I still learn history in my free time. Love this content.
Listening to this the morning before my exam to recap everything I’ve learnt. Thank you for the videos you have made, they’re all really helpful, thank you so much 😊
Last paper for my history gcse is in 6 hours, thank you for these videos they've helped me aim for at least 5 or 6, goodluck to everyone else also doing their exam!
Also your how to answer a 4 marker was so good !! Please make more as there isn’t many videos exposing how to properly answer the bigger question if even you have the understanding thanks again look forward to your Next vid 🙃 !
Good to hear the vid on the 4 marker worked! I plan to have made a few more of those videos before exam season - probably going to do 12 mark explain next. :)
Minor mistake at 1:59 which appears to show a Germany that has lands it didn't actually have at that point. Otherwise great video! Looking forward to some more in regards to Hitler's rise to power (a bit of an odd thing to say in retrospect but whatever) :D .
Thanks for telling me about the mistake - I'll make sure I don't do the same thing again! Looking back, the map I traced appears to show when Germany gained which bits of territory on the same map (it's written in German, so I'm not entirely sure) and it looks like I traced around the wrong bit. And also, I'm looking forward to making some more in regards to Hitler's rise to power lol :D
Thank you so much doing gcse in a couple months and I’m doing edexcel medicine in Britain , Cold War relations , Elizabethan , Weimar so this was really usefull for Germany please do more !
Pleased to hear my videos are helping you! Hopefully I'll have made many more videos by the time exam season rolls around ...or at least, that's the plan!
A long, long time ago... thank you look forward to it also doing some more how to answer question videos would be great especially the larger mark questions
Thank you for this, exam is on Tuesday and i have watched your previous videos all the way through. If you can, make a video on the Kapp and Munich putsch as there was none available that compares to your videos.
Aww thanks :) Good luck on Tuesday! The Kapp and Munich Putsch are both on my to do list of videos, but I won't be able to get them out before the exam unfortunately :(
this is so true all of the other ones werent for Gcse students like yours are but were for like people who really liked history so not very helpful thanks
Thanks this video has got alot of information but is useful keep up the good work🙌 Lots of information though in this video your biggest video yet in my opinion

Hi, thank you so much for your videos. Literally, there is nothing better to watch when revising for Germany! I am so frightfully happy and grateful for your videos. Thank you so much! However, I have a question, ** Do you have videos for the rest of the gcseGermany module ?** I hope you do, I don’t know exactly how to revise so with your videos I can at least revise some stuff with your incredible videos, they cover all the details written in the textbook! Thanks again!
Thank you for your lovely comment! :D I don't have videos covering the whole topic yet (they take a while to make as I'm sure you'll understand) but I am working on more Germany videos, aiming to get the whole of the Weimar Republic section done in the nearish future (I'm terrified of covering the Nazi section because I don't want to ruin my currently good relationship with the algorithm when it comes to monetisation). In the meantime, there are some other channels and things that you can probably find. Good luck!
@@Alonglongtimeago Oh yes, I completely understand. Indeed, they will take a long time. Its fine I understand. Thank you anyways! I wish you all the best luck too:)
Sorry to be the one to point out a mistake (and correct me if i’m wrong) but when stresemann established the new currency wasn’t it valued using land not gold? 1:05 as gold had been used up in the war and was partly the reason why hyperinflation started?
The Rentenmark wasn't not backed by gold (it was backed by land as you say), but it was tied to the price of gold (they did that by limiting the supply as I understand it). I think I probably could have done a better job separating these things as I've had a couple of people misinterpret that bit now. Hope that clears it up :)
This gives serious pause for thought. What if Stresemann didn't have that heart attack? What if the people who came in his place were of the same caliber? Apparently important things hinge on very unpredictable relatively small things? Brr.
I know this was made a long long time ago (haha you see what I did there😂), but I have only just found your channel. Great work but I'm pretty sure , 3:36, The Locarno Pact was signed by Britain France Germany Italy Belgium Poland and Czechoslovakia (Czech Republic now), i know I'm being pedantic but I guess that's just me lol. I might be wrong so don't quote me on it but that's what I learnt anyways. 😄 have a nice day
It's all from the pearson Weimar & Nazi Germany GCSE history textbook (I'd forgotten to put it in the description whoops - have rectified it now) but I really wouldn't recommend using it for anything other than a basic overview :)
i know this comment is over 3 years after. but you used the from ap of Germany throughout the video. you used the 1938 map after the anchlus of austria and the claiming of the Sudeten land. however this video is set in the 1920s. not a huge problem just pointing it out
Please enlighten me with what I have spelt wrong, I'm trying to work out whether it was a genuine mistake or something I deliberately misspelt. Also, I think we should be judging people by their content and not their spelling, as not being a native speaker of a language, being dyslexic or any other of numerous reasons that could lead to imperfect spelling doesn't mean that someone is saying anything of any less value, and often doesn't even hinder communication.
Valentinius62 too right! There’s also 2d stick men in this video and I don’t think that’s very accurate because stresemann was widely regarded as being three dimensional.
I’m pleased you liked the content of the video, but I’m afraid I’m going to have to disagree with you here. Firstly, the act of perceiving someone as poorly educated or not caring for spelling mistakes is problematic as there are many people who are very well educated but struggle with spellings for legitimate reasons (e.g. dyslexia). To assume someone is any less intelligent because of their language is linguistic discrimination. Obviously, this assumption does happen, and we have to deal with the reality of it, but I think this deserves to be mentioned that it shouldn’t. Also, I’m not saying it’s never okay to correct someone’s spelling, it’s just the manner with which it is done. The notion that language will change without standardised spelling is rather odd because language will always evolve, regardless of the presence of standardised spelling. And I believe the term you are looking for when you say ‘various cliques of slang’ is dialects. Many dialects are mutually intelligible, for instance, I read articles written by Americans all the time and have no problem understanding them even though they use a different spelling system. Other dialects find it more difficult to understand one another, e.g. a High German speaker listening to a Swiss German speaker, but that’s just the way language works… it doesn’t make any one dialect superior to another, even if some are more universally intelligible. I also feel the need to point out that the English language doesn’t even have standardised spelling. You write ‘standardized’ and I write ‘standardised’ and we’re both correct because there is no dialect globally considered to be ‘standard English’ (French and German, for instance, have central authorities on spelling). I also disagree that language is meant to ‘unify communication’. I personally believe that it is a tool for communication. The subtle difference being that if the words get the point across, then they did the job. 2 mistakes in 6 minutes of video, where you clearly manage to figure out what I was trying to say, don’t take from my point, because you understood. I always check my videos through and get someone else to check them as well, but things will always slip through the net, and I don’t think you should let that take from the value of the content.
A few people have picked up on this and I did some research to double check, what I say in the video is actually correct (at least from my fact-checking), but it's worded really unclearly. The Rentenmark was tied to the price of gold, but it wasn't backed by gold, instead it was backed by agricultural land, which is where it gets confusing. Thanks for letting me know though! :)
I mean I’m doing my GCSEs in like may, and I’m already getting 7s and 8s. Should I revise? Because tbh I’m kinda flunking my English exams. Other than that, I’d say I’m good.
I didn't word it very well, but it was tied to the value of gold, but backed by agricultural land. Also, I checked the Dawes Plan and it was definitely signed in August, so there might be some dodgy wording going on (where technically Stresemann agreed then) or I might just be wrong (not sure where I got April from now). Either way, I will add it to the corrections! :)
@@Alonglongtimeago your videos are amazing btw! Are u considering continuing the weimar & nazi germany topic? It would be a great help for gcse especially after the lockdown, ofc ur not obliged to tho lol.
The Young Plan also established the Bank of International Settlements in Basil Switzerland, an extra territorial bank that has to follow no laws, not even Switzerlands, which was intended for Germany to pay back the loans but in WW2 it got flipped and it was used to export the infamous "Nazi Gold". Germany didnt pay all the debt off by time Hitler took over and Germany never paid 1/8 of Americas loaned money but after WW2 Germany had to repay once East and West was unified but West Germany paid most back by time of reunification in 1989 and unified Germany paid the US back in 2016 and paid everyone else back in 2020. So only just recently Germany has no more reparations. The Federal Reserve Bank of The United States is one of many central banks of alot of countries, the client banks of these central banks are the local banks such as Bank of America, US Bank etc...and the central banks are members of The Bank of International Settlements in Basil Switzerland. The central bank of central banks. The BIS is used, among other things, so nations can transfer funds to other nations, this was its original intention when developed from 'The Young Plan' after 'The War Guilt Clause' (co written by John Foster Dulles) of 'The Treaty of Versailles' so Germany could repay it's war debts until the early 2000s which created one of the justifications used by the Nazis and many other groups to take power. Than John Foster Dulles, before WW2, worked on the Dawes Plan which reduced German war reperations which led the way for the change of the BIS during WW2. The BIS is not simply for governmental business, it is also a profit making bank, it is the first global financial institution and like the reserve banks is both governmental and private. The BIS was established in 1930 by Montague Norman, President of the Bank of England and Hjalmar Schacht, President of the Reichs Bank. The BIS is "Legally Inviolable" (cant legally be touched) so it is autonomous from Swiss law like the Vatican is autonomous from Italian law. During WW2 Hjalmar Schacht (the father in law of Otto Skorzeny) was on the Board of BIS and President of Reichsbank. Also on the board was American Thomas McKittrick who was family friends with John Foster and Allen Dulles. During WW2 Allen Dulles was a diplomat and OSS agent in neutral Switzerland, home of the extra territorial BIS. Later on John Foster Dulles was Secretary of State and Allen Dulles was director of CIA and both were highly related to Project Paperclip and The Gehlen Organization/founding of BND. The Dulles brothers law firm 'Sullivan and Cromwell' also represented Chiquita Banana and the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company (British Petroleum) the former the main backers of the CIA coup of Jacob Arbenz in Guatemala and the later the main backer of the 1951 CIA coup of Iranian President Mohammed Mosedegh, which was carried out by Kermit Roosevelt, nephew of former US President Theodore Roosevelt. And that's how the whole world got robbed by an international group of rich a**holes. America got robbed, England got robbed, Guatemala got robbed, Iran got robbed, the Jews got more than robbed, and even Germany got robbed. Everyone got robbed.
Excellent little videos on interwar Germany, among others. re: "..backed by Germany’s gold reserves / This allowed people to trust German money again" I don't believe that's accurate but I'll look into it.
I'm rolling off what it says in a GCSE textbook, so it could be a simplified version of what actually happened or something along those lines? If it turns out I'm wrong (aka the textbook it wrong), please correct me as I can make sure there's a note somewhere so people know it's wrong. :)
@@Alonglongtimeago Yeah, I was looking into it. Apparently they were back by gold bonds, not redeemable, simply denominated at the market price for gold at the time (which fluctuates of course). A gold bond is a debt, same as a treasury bond, serving as an asset to the central bank. Basically they just started over with a new currency. Nothing to do with "gold standard" . I did learn from the video though. thanks.

@@Alonglongtimeago Oh Right Cool!. I'm going to Do Tudors and Wars of the Roses:(1455 to 1485) Russia and a Essay question on a period of History we get to choose and Study.
Awesome! I forgot to mention, we have coursework which we also get to chose the topic for (I'm doing mine on the Anglo-Saxons). What topic are you doing for your essay? :)
@@Alonglongtimeago Anglo Saxons is a Very interesting period. I will Probably do the Tudors or Princes in the Tower in 1483 during the Final years of the Wars of the Roses. Or Maybe The French Revolution and Napoleon Bonaparte conquering Western Europe by 1812- Napolenic Wars.
Germany didnt pay all the deby off by time Hitler took over and Germany never paid 1/8 of Americas loaned money but after WW2 Germany had to repay once East and West was unified but West Germany paid most back buy reunification in 1989 and unified Germany paid the US back in 2016 and paid everyone else back in 2020.

Thanks you’re a lifesaver
What about the treaty of Rapallo with the Soviet Union?
I assume this is just meant to include material in the GCSE history textbooks rather than anything else he may have done.
@@zexal4217 Yup, the Treaty of Rapallo isn't part of the GCSE, hence it's not in the video.
i know this comment is over 3 years after. but you used the from ap of Germany throughout the video. you used the 1938 map after the anchlus of austria and the claiming of the Sudeten land. however this video is set in the 1920s. not a huge problem just pointing it out
Of you look through comments she corrected herself
your jokes are unrivalled
good to know I'm not the only person who finds me funny lol
Interesting and well done overall.
Please enlighten me with what I have spelt wrong, I'm trying to work out whether it was a genuine mistake or something I deliberately misspelt.
Also, I think we should be judging people by their content and not their spelling, as not being a native speaker of a language, being dyslexic or any other of numerous reasons that could lead to imperfect spelling doesn't mean that someone is saying anything of any less value, and often doesn't even hinder communication.
Valentinius62 too right! There’s also 2d stick men in this video and I don’t think that’s very accurate because stresemann was widely regarded as being three dimensional.
I’m pleased you liked the content of the video, but I’m afraid I’m going to have to disagree with you here.
Firstly, the act of perceiving someone as poorly educated or not caring for spelling mistakes is problematic as there are many people who are very well educated but struggle with spellings for legitimate reasons (e.g. dyslexia). To assume someone is any less intelligent because of their language is linguistic discrimination. Obviously, this assumption does happen, and we have to deal with the reality of it, but I think this deserves to be mentioned that it shouldn’t. Also, I’m not saying it’s never okay to correct someone’s spelling, it’s just the manner with which it is done.
The notion that language will change without standardised spelling is rather odd because language will always evolve, regardless of the presence of standardised spelling. And I believe the term you are looking for when you say ‘various cliques of slang’ is dialects. Many dialects are mutually intelligible, for instance, I read articles written by Americans all the time and have no problem understanding them even though they use a different spelling system. Other dialects find it more difficult to understand one another, e.g. a High German speaker listening to a Swiss German speaker, but that’s just the way language works… it doesn’t make any one dialect superior to another, even if some are more universally intelligible.
I also feel the need to point out that the English language doesn’t even have standardised spelling. You write ‘standardized’ and I write ‘standardised’ and we’re both correct because there is no dialect globally considered to be ‘standard English’ (French and German, for instance, have central authorities on spelling).
I also disagree that language is meant to ‘unify communication’. I personally believe that it is a tool for communication. The subtle difference being that if the words get the point across, then they did the job. 2 mistakes in 6 minutes of video, where you clearly manage to figure out what I was trying to say, don’t take from my point, because you understood. I always check my videos through and get someone else to check them as well, but things will always slip through the net, and I don’t think you should let that take from the value of the content.
this is so much nice to me thank u so much.
Pleased you like it! :)
thank you so much
Slight error, Rentenmark was actually tied to the price of Industry and agriculture, not gold.
A few people have picked up on this and I did some research to double check, what I say in the video is actually correct (at least from my fact-checking), but it's worded really unclearly. The Rentenmark was tied to the price of gold, but it wasn't backed by gold, instead it was backed by agricultural land, which is where it gets confusing. Thanks for letting me know though! :)
Another really useful video - my students find these really useful. Thank you.
your an angel
Why did you use the border of Great Germany with Austria and Polish stuff when you refer to the Weimar republic
Can you pleaseee carry on this series x
Dw this series is far from its end :)
@@Alonglongtimeago My GCSEs got cancelled but I’ll still watch 💚
I have my test today
Watching these an hour before my exam 😭
m2 gl
update i got a 7 lmao i was stuck on 5s the whole year
I mean I’m doing my GCSEs in like may, and I’m already getting 7s and 8s. Should I revise? Because tbh I’m kinda flunking my English exams. Other than that, I’d say I’m good.
OMG THAAANNNKKK YOUUU
No, THAANKKKK *YOUUUUU* (for watching)!! :D
Technically, the Rentenmark was based on land (agriculture) and industrial assets.
It was backed by agriculture, but tied to the price of gold
i had coconut mall playing in the background, it was amazing
as in from mario kart?
@@Alonglongtimeago well, yes
Good luck on the exam tomorrow everyone 🙏🙏💪
good luck for gcse tomorrow i so hope i get a 9
Good luck tomorrow, I hope you get a 9 too! :)
P.S. You're obliged to tell me if you do get a 9 now!
i just hope the grade boundaries are ok and i reckon there has to be some stresemann on it hopefully 12 marker
how banging was that exam oh mah god i think i have at least 36 on that paper woooo
there was so much stresemann thanks love you
@@jakepennington2648 Hell yeah!
Keep up the good work 😀😀
Thank you :) That's the plan!
correct if I'm wrong but i thought that the rentenmark was tied to property value rather than gold
Also I believe the Dawes plan was agreed in August rather than April
I didn't word it very well, but it was tied to the value of gold, but backed by agricultural land. Also, I checked the Dawes Plan and it was definitely signed in August, so there might be some dodgy wording going on (where technically Stresemann agreed then) or I might just be wrong (not sure where I got April from now). Either way, I will add it to the corrections! :)
@@Alonglongtimeago your videos are amazing btw! Are u considering continuing the weimar & nazi germany topic? It would be a great help for gcse especially after the lockdown, ofc ur not obliged to tho lol.
big up year 10 history class
2:09 vodka ??
Pure ethanol I'll have you know ;)
He was a bit too stresed out by 1929.
The Young Plan also established the Bank of International Settlements in Basil Switzerland, an extra territorial bank that has to follow no laws, not even Switzerlands, which was intended for Germany to pay back the loans but in WW2 it got flipped and it was used to export the infamous "Nazi Gold".
Germany didnt pay all the debt off by time Hitler took over and Germany never paid 1/8 of Americas loaned money but after WW2 Germany had to repay once East and West was unified but West Germany paid most back by time of reunification in 1989 and unified Germany paid the US back in 2016 and paid everyone else back in 2020. So only just recently Germany has no more reparations.
The Federal Reserve Bank of The United States is one of many central banks of alot of countries, the client banks of these central banks are the local banks such as Bank of America, US Bank etc...and the central banks are members of The Bank of International Settlements in Basil Switzerland. The central bank of central banks.
The BIS is used, among other things, so nations can transfer funds to other nations, this was its original intention when developed from 'The Young Plan' after 'The War Guilt Clause' (co written by John Foster Dulles) of 'The Treaty of Versailles' so Germany could repay it's war debts until the early 2000s which created one of the justifications used by the Nazis and many other groups to take power. Than John Foster Dulles, before WW2, worked on the Dawes Plan which reduced German war reperations which led the way for the change of the BIS during WW2.
The BIS is not simply for governmental business, it is also a profit making bank, it is the first global financial institution and like the reserve banks is both governmental and private.
The BIS was established in 1930 by Montague Norman, President of the Bank of England and Hjalmar Schacht, President of the Reichs Bank. The BIS is "Legally Inviolable" (cant legally be touched) so it is autonomous from Swiss law like the Vatican is autonomous from Italian law. During WW2 Hjalmar Schacht (the father in law of Otto Skorzeny) was on the Board of BIS and President of Reichsbank. Also on the board was American Thomas McKittrick who was family friends with John Foster and Allen Dulles. During WW2 Allen Dulles was a diplomat and OSS agent in neutral Switzerland, home of the extra territorial BIS. Later on John Foster Dulles was Secretary of State and Allen Dulles was director of CIA and both were highly related to Project Paperclip and The Gehlen Organization/founding of BND. The Dulles brothers law firm 'Sullivan and Cromwell' also represented Chiquita Banana and the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company (British Petroleum) the former the main backers of the CIA coup of Jacob Arbenz in Guatemala and the later the main backer of the 1951 CIA coup of Iranian President Mohammed Mosedegh, which was carried out by Kermit Roosevelt, nephew of former US President Theodore Roosevelt.
And that's how the whole world got robbed by an international group of rich a**holes. America got robbed, England got robbed, Guatemala got robbed, Iran got robbed, the Jews got more than robbed, and even Germany got robbed. Everyone got robbed.
Well that is what you would call an untimely death
Indeed
2:00 Guess Germany flipped democratic after havin Anschlussed Austria
Excellent little videos on interwar Germany, among others.
re: "..backed by Germany’s gold reserves / This allowed people to trust German money again" I don't believe that's accurate but I'll look into it.
I'm rolling off what it says in a GCSE textbook, so it could be a simplified version of what actually happened or something along those lines? If it turns out I'm wrong (aka the textbook it wrong), please correct me as I can make sure there's a note somewhere so people know it's wrong. :)
@@Alonglongtimeago Yeah, I was looking into it. Apparently they were back by gold bonds, not redeemable, simply denominated at the market price for gold at the time (which fluctuates of course).
A gold bond is a debt, same as a treasury bond, serving as an asset to the central bank. Basically they just started over with a new currency.
Nothing to do with "gold standard" . I did learn from the video though. thanks.
Damn, Stresemann is a legend
My history teacher showed me this video but before she did, she described Gustav Stresemann as Sexy Gus 😭
She needs help 😂
I thought the young plan reduced reparations?
It did. It reduced reparations from £6.6 bil to £2 bil. :)

@a long,long time ago....., What Periods of History do you study for A Level?
I do Modern Britain (which is 1951-2007) and Tsarist and Communist Russia (which is 1855-1964) :)
@@Alonglongtimeago Oh Right Cool!. I'm going to Do Tudors and Wars of the Roses:(1455 to 1485) Russia and a Essay question on a period of History we get to choose and Study.
Awesome! I forgot to mention, we have coursework which we also get to chose the topic for (I'm doing mine on the Anglo-Saxons). What topic are you doing for your essay? :)
@@Alonglongtimeago Anglo Saxons is a Very interesting period. I will Probably do the Tudors or Princes in the Tower in 1483 during the Final years of the Wars of the Roses. Or Maybe The French Revolution and Napoleon Bonaparte conquering Western Europe by 1812- Napolenic Wars.
W's in the chat for stressman
