@poempadgett4664 That was the reason why I mentioned the economy, as the Scramble for Africa and oil exploration was taking place as well, but the war was mainly over what was taking place inside Germany in politics, where socialism was being allowed to advance by Wilhelm, and then, Ebert, which the capitalist nations wanted to stop. That was before Antifa was later formed in 1932, where they actually had both the socialists and national socialists trying to work together at first, until the nationals split, and left Antifa. "It was set up by the then-Stalinist Communist Party of Germany (KPD) during the late history of the Weimar Republic. After the forced dissolution in the wake of Machtergreifung in 1933, the movement went underground."
There were several types of socialism in Germany during that time, with the worst of it being led by Rosa Luxenburg and Karl Liebknecht. Ebert was at the head of the milder form of it with the SPD, when the hardliners had their uprising. The SPD goes back to 1913.
"In August 1914, Luxemburg, along with Karl Liebknecht, Clara Zetkin, and Franz Mehring, founded the Die Internationale ("The International") group which became the Spartacus League in January 1916."
"In response to the uprising, Luxemburg's former student, German Chancellor and SPD leader Friedrich Ebert ordered the Freikorps to suppress the Soviet backed attempt at revolution, which was successfully crushed by 11 January 1919." Ebert didn't seem to like their totalitarian views, but they got them, anyhow, with the NSDAP later on.
