Chapter:
00:00 Introduction
00:31 Early History
01:57 German Confederation and German Empire
03:17 The Weimar Republic and Nazi Germany
04:30 Post World War II and Reunification of Germany
By the time of Roman general Julius Caesar, the Germanic people, or “Germani” were established east of the Rhine River in the lands he referred to as “Germania”.
Areas that remained out of Roman control were referred to as “Magna Germania.”
In the 4th century, the Roman Empire was invaded by different tribes, eventually leading to the fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476 AD.
In 800, the Frankish king Charlemagne was crowned emperor of the Holy Roman Empire of which German territories formed a central part.
Following a defeat by Napoleon I, in 1806, the empire was dissolved.
Napoleon's reign came to an end in 1815 with the Congress of Vienna, forming the German Confederation, a loose league of 39 sovereign German states, most notably of which were the Austrian Empire and the Kingdom of Prussia.
In 1866, war broke out between Austria and Prussia and ended with the victory of Prussia, leading to the collapse of the German Confederation.
In 1867, the North German Confederation was formed, paving the way for the formation of the German Empire.
In 1914, Germany led the Central Powers in World War I against the Allied Powers.
Following its defeat five years later, Germany was severely punished by the Treaty of Versailles, leading to the loss of 13% of its European territory.
The German Revolution ended the German Empire and established the Weimar Republic.
Adolf Hitler, leader of the Nazi Party, was appointed Chancellor and then Dictator of Germany, beginning the transformation of the Weimar Republic into Nazi Germany.
In 1939, the Nazis invaded Poland, initiating World War II.
During the war, the Holocaust led by the Nazis murdered 17 million people across German-occupied Europe, of which 6 million were Jews.
Following Hitler's suicide, Germany surrendered on 8 May 1945, marking the end of World War II in Europe.
Germany was partitioned into four occupation zones, and in May 1949, the France, US, and Great Britain occupation zones were merged to form the Federal Republic of Germany or West Germany. Meanwhile, the Soviet zone became the German Democratic Republic or East Germany.
The Berlin Wall was built to divide East Berlin from West Berlin.
Following the fall of the Berlin Wall, in 1990, the “Two Plus Four” Treaty was negotiated, allowing the official reunification of Germany later that year.
What do you think is the reason why Adolf Hiter committed suicide before the end of WWII?
