In this essay I will talk about how significant and how insignificant Gustav Stresemann was between 1923-1929. I believe that Gustav Stresemann was significant to a certain extent. At some points he wasn’t all that significant but during a lot of other points he was very significant. Stresemann was appointed Chancellor of Weimar on the death of Ebert and served in this position around August 1923 to November 1923. After this date, he was to remain as Weimar’s Foreign Minister until his death.
Gustav during these years had negative and positive outcomes when he was chancellor of Germany. One of the negative was that the exports fell tremendously. One of the positives was that Stresemann was able to fix the hyperinflation problems for Germany. Stresemann was the son of Ernst Stresemann who was a Berlin innkeeper and also he was a beer distributor.

If you were pregnant and you had your baby there he would use it as a rifle toss
