The Weimar Republic refers to Germany and its political system between late 1918 (the end of World War I) and 1933 (the rise of Nazism). The Weimar Republic began as a bold political experiment. The men who took control of Germany after World War I were ambitious reformers. They hoped to create a modern liberal democracy, in a nation that had known only militarism and authoritarian monarchy. Together they adopted one of the world’s most democratic and progressive constitutions. The first years of the Weimar Republic were unsettled and tumultuous, marked by international isolation and economic suffering. In the mid-1920s, Germany moved into a more prosperous period dubbed the ‘Golden Age of Weimar’, a time of economic recovery, social renewal and cultural innovation. Much of this prosperity, however, was propped up by foreign loans, while the Weimar state remained weak and unstable. The Great Depression of the early 1930s brought the Weimar dream crashing to earth. By late 1933 Weimar democracy had given way to Nazi totalitarianism.
