The term Weimar Republic (German: Weimarer Republik [ˈvaɪmaʁɐ ʁepuˈbliːk]) is a name used to describe the nation state which existed between 1919 and 1933 as a successor to the German Empire. The name derives from the city of Weimar, where its constitutional assembly first took place, although the official name of the state was the German Reich (Deutsches Reich), continuing the name from the pre-1918 Imperial period.
The republic was a semi-presidential representative democracy, and emerged in the aftermath of the German Revolution of 1918–19. A national assembly was convened in Weimar, where a new constitution for the German Reich was written, and adopted on 11 August 1919. In its fourteen years, the Weimar Republic faced numerous problems, including hyperinflation, political extremists (with paramilitaries – both left and right wing) and contentious relationships with the victors of the First World War. The Weimar Republic successfully reformed the currency, and unified tax policies and the railway system. Germany eliminated most of the requirements of the Treaty of Versailles and never completely met its disarmament requirements, and eventually only paid a small portion of the war reparations by twice restructuring its debt through the Dawes Plan and the Young Plan. Under the Locarno Treaties, the western borders of the republic were accepted by Germany, but the Eastern border remained debatable for the Weimar German governments.

This documentary film is about the U.S. flu pandemic of 1918. It includes interviews with several survivors sharing their emotional stories. Long before modern flu shots and vaccines, the 1918 flu pandemic occurred as an unusual influenza infection, the first of the two involving H1N1 influenza virus. Without modern vaccines the virus infected about 500 million across the world, including remote Pacific islands and the Arctic. It eventually resulted in the loss of 50 to 100 million (3% to 5% of the world's population), making it one of the worst natural disasters in human history. Once symptoms appeared, the virus rapidly spread, greatly limited life expectancy in the early 20th century.

Vor 90 Jahren, als der Sozialdemokrat Philipp Scheidemann von einem Balkon des Reichstags und der Spartakist Karl Liebknecht zwei Kilometer östlich vom Berliner Schloss aus die deutsche Republik ausriefen, war die Linke tief zerstritten darüber, wie mit dem politischen Erbe des Kaiserreichs und den Herrschaftsverhältnissen in Deutschland umzugehen sei. Die einen blickten bewundernd auf die Vorgänge in Russland und sahen in der jungen Sowjetrepublik ein Vorbild. Die anderen distanzierten sich energisch davon. Un...

TAISTELU NÄSILINNASTA 1918 on autenttinen, pysäyttävän todentuntuinen draama Suomen sisällissodan ratkaisun hetkistä. Elokuva perustuu tositapahtumiin ja todellisiin historiallisiin henkilöihin. Yliluutnantti Melinin (Nicke Lignell) valkoinen komppania valmistautuu yöllä hyökkäykseen punaisen Tampereen laitamilla huhtikuun 3. päivänä. Komppanian tehtävänä on tunkeutua kaupunkiin ja valloittaa Näsilinna-palatsi, joka on punaisten hallussa. Vaasassa vain viikon pituisen taistelukoulutuksen saaneet komppanian jäsenet ovat nuoria alle 20-vuotiaita pohjanmaalaisten maanviljelijäperheiden poikia. Vaikka miehet eivät sitä vielä tiedä, tulee Näsilinnan valtaamisesta Suomen sisällissodan ratkaiseva taistelu.
