From the transcript
For as brief as it was, the Weimar Republic was a stunningly complex time in German history, one in which a wide array of politicians, thinkers, writers, and ideologues waged a battle for Germany's soul.
At the same time, the republic's leaders struggled to keep the state afloat, crippled by several years of total war and a set of blistering economic sanctions from victorious allied powers. It was a time of profound social reckoning for Germany, one that saw reform and starry-eyed progressivism co-exist with economic hardship and rising extremism.
In a way, it was a system built for inevitable collapse. The Weimar Republic was also fertile ground, who won out of Hitler recently returned from the front lines of the Great War, who had despaired at the news of German surrender in 1918.
