How was the Weimar Republic formed (in points)

Dear Student,
The Weimar Republic was formed in the following ways:

  • The public sentiments turned against the government in Germany post 1918. The Kaiser, in desperation bid to hang onto power, appointed Prince max of Baden as Chancellor 

  • In November, a revolution broke out, the kaiser escaped to Holland and abdicated, and prince Max resigned. 

  • Friedrich Ebert, leader of the left wing Social Democrat party, completely democratic one ever to take place in Germany. 

  • The Social Democratic emerged as largest single party and Ebert became the first President of the democratic republic. 

    Regards,

  • By the end of 1919,  a new constitution came into existence by the Assembly at Weimar, hence named as Weimar republic.
