Notes
- democratic Gov't formed after WWI
- Republics don't have a king or a queen
- First chancellor is Friedrich Ebert until 1925
- people mad that they followed treaty of versailles
- Chancellor = Prime minister to us
- Two challenges: 1st Spartakist Uprising commonest. Lead by Karl Liebknecht and Rosa Luxemburg
- 2nd Right wing. Wolfgang Kapp leads. Wanted a Putsch or overthrow of government.
- Both attempts fail and republic lives.
