Germany lost 1918 world war I. The treaty of Versailles damned Germany 1919 to pay a lot of reparations to the nations that won the war. Germany had a very weak economy at this time. The young republic of Weimar had no money. So Germany printed a lot of money which lost its value from day to day. The inflation period started 1919 and became worst on November 1923. 1923 french troops occupied the German industry region the "Ruhrgebiet" because Germany didn't pay its reparations at that time. Therefore the inflation became worse and worst at this time. |
