The German economy was not 'in ruins throughout the 1930s'. Like most other countries it was hit by the Great Depression that followed the stockmarket crash of October 1929. It was affected more severely than, for example, Britain and for a while had an extremely high rate of unemployment in the early 1930s, like the U.S. By 1933 the economy was slowly picking up, thanks partly to measures initiated by the Weimar governments. After Hitler came to power in 1933 onwards the German economy received an enormous boost from rearmament. Unemployment fell and living standards rose, though there is disagreement about some of the details.

What began the collapse of the German economy in the 1920s?

The collapse of the German economy in the 1920s was initiated by the severe reparations imposed by the Treaty of Versailles after World War I, which placed a heavy financial burden on Germany. The situation worsened with hyperinflation in the early 1920s, triggered by the government's decision to print money to pay reparations and support the economy. This led to the devaluation of the German mark, skyrocketing prices, and widespread poverty. The economic instability ultimately set the stage for the rise of extremist political movements, including the Nazis.
