The Constitution Of The Weimar Republic

 The Weimar Republic 


it was deployed in February 1919 in a crushed Germany and continued until March 1933, when it was displaced by Hitler's Third Reich. It created a bicameral body of experts: the Reichstag, a public social event, and the Reichsrat, which contained representatives of the various Lander (states).

The Imperial Council could excuse directives passed by the Reichstag. The Landers carried their state parliaments, neighborhood police powers, and law chief. Under exceptionally sensitive circumstances, the Lander Assemblies and Councils were suspended and administered directly from the center


Elections should be predictable and anyone over the age of 20 could design a voting form. The procedure of relative display gave voice and presence in the Reichstag to even the smallest philosophical gatherings. One-tenth of the general population could force a decree on a draft directive excused by the Reichstag.

The president, chosen based on a comprehensive honor, was the head of state and served for seven years. He assigned and pardoned the chancellor (head of state) and told the greatly reduced army of the republic. He saved his honor to revoke the directives passed by the Reichstag, separate them, and call early decisions and referenda. He could similarly control by profession when he declared a deeply delicate circumstance.

The Weimar constitution guaranteed the right to neighborhood self-government, "just presence", money-related and strictly open doors, the ability to speak, print, and accumulate without reservation, and the ability to form professional associations.


The Weimar constitution was rarely repealed or replaced. it remained in force until 1949 – the entire 12 years of the Third Reich.

However, on February 28, 1933—the day after the Reichstag building was set on fire, allegedly as part of a "communist plot"—Hitler presented von Hindenburg, the frail and octogenarian German president, with an urgent plea entitled "For the Protection of the People and the State; to prepare for communist displays of violence threatening the state'.

Article 1 notices suspended and great honors guaranteed by the Weimar Constitution. It said:

“Thus, restrictions on the confidential opportunity, rights to free evaluation explanations, including the ability to print, the right to connect and collect, and mail, consignment, and telephone business security breaches and home appearance warranties, asset forfeiture orders, as well as property award limits are reasonable past over beyond what many would consider possible anyway."

Article 2 of the profession allowed the Reich government to take command of the power of the Länder states to restore security and coercion.

The Weimar constitution was a hopeless situation.
Adopted in 1949 by West Germany, the 13,000-word constitution was planned after its Weimar predecessor included safeguards on that point against its suspension by an established despot and a declaration of a mighty struggle. The state of Bavaria - a critical component of West Germany - would not approve of this as it was considered too "centralist" (Landers were allowed a lack of power).

The primary election according to this fixed record occurred on August 14, 1949.
