The Weimar Government and the German War

The Germans held elections in early 1919 for the first time because the Allies insisted on it. Women were given suffrage, and that election elected the government that signed the peace treaty. This administration will become known as the Weimar government - named after the city where it's founded. The government immediately attracts abuse from those who hate democracy on principle. They called it the imposed democracy. Germany had no choice but to accept democracy. But one man will soon join their ranks and change the course of German politics. Adolf Hitler will soon nail his colours to the mast and throw himself headlong into the politics of the far right.
