The Wiemar Republic is the republic which governed [[Germany]] from 1919 to 1933. It experienced many problems.
This government was already disliked by the German people for having signed the humiliating [[Treaty of Versailles]]. The huge reparations required by that Treaty caused an even bigger problem. Germany simply could not pay.
So Germany began printing money, and lots of it. This made it easier for Germany to pay its reparations, but caused enormous inflation in Germany. People were outraged at the loss in value of their savings, and hardship resulted as the German mark (its currency) became almost worthless. The German people disapproved even more of their own government.
