Stalemate • Times of Nazi Success • Times of Nazi Difficulty • Accomplishments of Gustav Stresemann
Stresemann’s Accomplishments • The Rentenmark - Stresemann ended this disastrous process of overprinting money that led to hyperinflation by introducing a new currency, the Rentenmark, which reassured the people that the democratic system was willing and able to solve urgent problems. • The Dawes Plan (1924) - which reduced Germany's overall reparations commitment and reorganized the Reichsbank. • Treaty of Locarno (1925) - Germany officially recognized the post World War I western border for the first time, and was guaranteed peace with France, and promised admission to the League of Nations and evacuation of the last Allied occupation troops from the Rhineland. • The Treaty of Berlin (1926) – Movement to allay growing suspicions from the USSR. The treaty reaffirmed the Treaty of Rapallo from 1922. • League of Nations (1926) - Germany was admitted to the League of Nations as permanent member of the Security Council. This was a sign that Germany was quickly becoming a "normal" state
Stresemann’s Accomplishments • The Kellogg-Briand Pact (1928) - It renounced the use of violence to resolve international conflicts. Although Stresemann did not propose the pact, Germany's adherence convinced many people that Weimar Germany was a Germany that could be reasoned with. • The Young Plan (1929) – Superseded the Dawes Plan by reducing reparation payments further and establishing a 60 year time frame for repayment.
Loss of Nazi Appeal • Election weakness • Little Reichstag Representation
Goering and Himmler • New Important Figures • Herman Goering • Heinrich Himmler
