The #KappPutsch began on #ThisDayInHistory in 1920. For five days the new #WeimarRepublic, founded after the #GermanRevolution, was chased from Berlin. But the gov's call to #GeneralStrike & refusal of bureaucrats to back the coup doomed it. Amnesty for putschists was a mistake.

On #ThisDayInHistory in 1920, 100,000 gathered outside Germany's parliament to protest a law #SocialDemocrats were using to weaken the #WorkersCouncils from the #GermanRevolution. In the #ReichstagBloodbath, police fired into crowds as they stormed in, killing ~42, wounding ~105.

the 3rd part of Jonas Čeika's series on the #germanRevolution is out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qFLDv4NO8xE&list=PL7y0zyKXzhwzrZ0raG4HpT8ZdXx9USoW3&index=3
