Stresemann was now in power.

He made the Dawes plan and Young plan to reduce reparations and form a new German currency with loans from America.

Cultural achievements were high - new bands, artists, poets and there was no censorship so new material was made.

Good foreign policies - Locarno Treaties 1925 lead to Germany joining the League of Nations.

BAD POINTS
No party won majority of seats.

Unemployment was on the increase.

Government was spending too much on benefits and health.

The loans and new currency were dependent on the USA.
