As a small production announcement: This was the last episode that in the classical format where we answer questions directly. From May onward, every video we publish every other week will have one main topic: an important event from exactly 100 years ago. This will make it much easier to follow the channel and it will be more in line with our mission statement to cover the war in real time 100 years later. Of course, you can still ask questions. We will answer some of the directly in our Patreon podcast and we will use them as inspiration for our episodes. As an example: A lot of fans asked if we will cover the American "Polar Bear Expedition" and so that will be exactly what we will cover in our episode in late May. On top of that, we will do a small "time jump" and starting with our episode in June we will have a synchronized timeline again meaning: The episodes coming out in June 2019 will cover June 1919 an so forth.

It was supposed to be a demilitarized zone. Of course the allies only meant demilitarized by their enemy’s not themselves. That’s how they viewed neutrality also. Netherlands, Ireland, Portugal allegedly neutral yet allowed allied war ships to fill up in their ports or allow allied war planes to cross their airspace. Not allowed for German military but ok for allies. Selected neutrality. Only Switzerland upheld true neutrality, hence they weren’t invaded by the Axis.

The Central Bank in return Devalued their Gold, making almost worthless. I said years ago, Venezuela will be the next Country to fall because they dared to get their Gold back, and look what's happening in Venezuela now. The Venzuela Government is going to be overthrown. This is a warning to any Country who dare ask for their Gold back from the Central Banks. smh!!

It revolutionized our understanding of Economics.

You passed a little quickly over the assassination of Kurt Eisner. He was shot dead by Arco-Valley, a far right aristocrat who had been denied membership in the Thule Society because he was part-Jewish. One of Eisner's associates assumed the SPD leadership was involved and shot Auer, the head of the Munich SPD. Auer survived although severely wounded. One commentator, Sebastian Haffner, has noted how already things in Germany had reached a point where, when a radical left-wing leader was killed, it was assumed that the SPD had something to do with it, although in fact Auer had nothing to do with Eisner's murder.
