1924–1929: Beautiful Appearance (1x2)


:

From 1924 to 1929 the Weimar Republic was able to take another breath. The introduction of the Rentenmark drove away the specter of inflation. The reparations were reduced in the Dawes Plan. The economy flourished and politics was relatively stable despite the hostility of the opponents of the republic. Reich President Friedrich Ebert gave a speech in front of honorary formations of the Reichswehr in the Berlin Lustgarten and advocated tolerance. In 1925 Germany returned to the international stage. Foreign Minister Stresemann negotiated in Locarno. In the Treaties of Locarno, Germany and the Allies laid down the borders newly drawn up by the Treaty of Versailles. In 1926 Germany was admitted to the League of Nations. Gustav Stresemann and the French Foreign Minister Aristide Briand received the Nobel Peace Prize in the same year.
