The German Hyperinflation was by NO MEANS<\/strong> about inflation created by an increase in the money supply under the Quantity Theory of Money (QTM)<\/strong>. Today, Angela Merkel has forcefully imposed Austerity upon the whole of Europe because she really does not understand what even caused the hyperinflation. It was at the Palace of Versailles outside Paris when Germany signed the Treaty of Versailles<\/strong>\u00a0on June 28th, 1919 with the Allies, officially ending World War I. AT that time, the English economist John Maynard Keynes attended the peace conference. However, Keynes left in protest of the treaty becoming the first outspoken critic of what would prove to be the most punitive agreement that only set the stage for World War II and the rise of Adolf Hitler in 1933.<\/p>\n

John Maynard Keynes wrote in his The Economic Consequences of the Peace<\/strong>, which he published in December 1919, that the harsh war reparation payments and other harsh terms that they were to impose on Germany by the treaty would lead to the financial collapse of the country. Keynes further warned that this Treaty would result in serious economic and political repercussions on Europe and the world as a whole. The political trend at the time refused to listen. This was all about punishing Germany.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>We must also understand that wars are created by politicians \u2013 not the people. Prior to the Treaty of Versailles <\/strong>signed in June 1919, <\/strong>there was the German Communist Revolution which began the\u00a0Weimar Republic. It was this 1918 German Communist Revolution which was inspired by the 1917 Russian Revolution that resulted in the overthrown of the monarchy in Germany ending the Emperors and the king of Prussia.\u00a0The revolutionary period lasted from November 1918 until the adoption in August 1919.<\/p>\n
