What is the inflation rate in Germany?
Due to the Treaty of Versailles, Germany had to pay reparations to France, Belgium and Britain (£6.6 billion). The reparations were due to start in 1921. French and Belgium troops invaded the Ruhr in response to the German Government failure to pay the reparations they owed. Germans workers were then forces to go on strike in the Ruhr but continued to get paid. The German Government printed more money to pay the German workers and to pay the reparations they owed the other countries. Then the workers on strike got more money that they could buy things from the shop. As they spent more money in shops they shop keepers put their prices up. The German Government carried on printing money so the shopkeepers raised their prices again. Then prices were inflating do fast that it was known as hyperinflation. By November 1923 a loaf of bread cost around 20 million marks.

I found this in our database and it is getting old. No one could answer your question because the question is too vague. We would need to know WHAT you want to know about Germany at the end of World War 2. Here is a basic run down for you. If it does not answer your question then re-ask it with specifics.
- Germans were defeated in spirit and shocked over what they learned about the truth of what the Nazis had done with the Jews. In reality they did know but could not believe it. (You know the old concept of living in denial).
- The US had to have food and basic living things sent over to Germany and other European countries because the people had no homes, no jobs, no businesses and no food or medicines.
- They had to clean up all the rubble around their country. Women went to work to remove the rubble. Some men and kids helped too but in reality there were not very many men between ages 18-50 left because they were either killed or maimed or in POW camps.
- It took Germany years to be able to rebuild but they did accomplish a lot in 10 years time.
- Other nations did not want the Germans to have a technological and industrial base economy. They wanted them to exist with an agricultural base so they could never build war implements ever again. The economists that that was unrealistic because it had not been an agrarian society and they did not know how to farm on a large scale.
- It would have been a shame to not capture their ability to make exceptionally good products. They were allowed in the end to become an industrial nation again.
- It took the world a while to forgive the Germans for the evil they allowed to rule over Europe and murder 11 million people for hateful reasons and 20 million Russians for the same reasons.
- Germany is now a wonderful country full of great people.
The German states were united by a series of three wars planned out by Otto von Bismarck and carried out by teh Prussian state that had diplomatic significance to the people in the different regions.
Bismarck knew that the states in the north wouldn;t join with Prussia unless it seemed like the most logical option. To convince them, he told Demark, that bordered those states, that the duchies of Schlesswieg and Hollstein were German and shouldn't be controlled by Denmark. He made a deal with the Austro-Hungarians that if they fought with Prussia against Denmark, they would get one of the duchies. The Danish-Prussian War ensued. Denmark was defeated, Schlesswieg and Hollstein went under Prussian and Austrian rule and those northern German states saw unity with Prussia as the most logical option. And because Denmark began the war itself, the war saw it as an agressor against a country who want to negotitate through diplomats so there were no hard feelings for Prussia amongst other countries.
Schlesswieg and Hollstein served another purpose. The southeastern German states would rather join Austia-Hungary that with the other German states. Bismarck again thought a war would convince them of German supperiority. The former Danish duchy Prussia had let Austria take provided an excuse. Bismarck told Austria Prussia didn't think Austria was ruling its duchy very well. Austria took offense and began the Austro-Prussian War, also known as the Seven Weeks War. Prussia won, but stopped short of sacking Vienna because they would need Austria as an ally eventually. The southeastern states joined with Prussia and Prussia got the other duchy. And because Austria began the war, the world saw Austria as an agressor against a country who had simply said something through a diplomat so other countries had no hard feelings for Prussia.
Bismarck had to do something rather underhanded to gain the Southwestern provinces as well as Alsace and Lorraine, that were under French control. At Ems, the kaiser of Prussia recieved a telegram from Napolean III of France that described that he felt offended by such-and-such a thing. The Kaiser wrote a very apologietic letter and told Bismarck to send it. However, Bismarck wrote and sent a different, rude letter not only to Napolean, but to multiple French newspapers. When the French demanded answers, Bismarck presented teh Kaiser's letter and claimed Prussia had been framed. The French began the Franco-Prussia War over the offense. It ended and 180,000 French were prisoners of Prussia, including Napolean. The southwestern states joined Prussia and the treaty ceded Alsace and Lorraine to the new Germany. Again, Prussia was not the agressor and was well-liked.
This all occurred over a decade and ended with a united Germany in 1871.
They were Allies. But nearing the end when the Italians wanted to kick Mussolini out of power, Hitler sent in German troops to take control. He didn't want to lose the country, so he sent in his soldiers temporarily to fight the Allies and make sure Italy stayed its ally. But he didn't invade it in the way that he invaded other countries such as France.
