The Weimar Republic was established in 1919. It was the German Government between WW1 and WW2. it faced many problems from extremists, power in the Reichstag and the economy. Reparations led to hyperinflation which was later resolved by the Dawes Plan.
Paul von Hindenberg (1847-1934) commanded the German armies under Kaiser Wilhelm II during World War 1, and was President of the Weimar Republic (and its successor, the German Reich) from May 12, 1925 until his death on August 2, 1934. As the last German Chancellor to serve under Hindenburg, Hitler assumed power upon Hindenburg's death.
In 1930 Germany was still known as the "German Empire" or "German Realm" (German- das deutsche Reich), though today the German government during the period from 1919 to the Nazi "forcible coordination" (Gleichschaltung) in 1933 is commonly called the "Weimar Republic" (German- Weimarer Republik) because its constitution was established in the German city of Weimar.
Adolf Hitler was the leader of Germany in the years leading to World War II. He became chancellor of Germany in 1933, six years before the war began.

For fomenting revolution against the Weimar Republic. It was during this imprisonment that he wrote 'Mein Kampf.'
Hoess was a prisoner during the Weimar Republic, but this was not in a concentration camp.

There was none. No such position existed. Germany was a monarchy at the time led by Kaiser (king) Wilhem the 2nd, the next highest position was that of Chancellor. This was a weak (unless given power by the Kaiser) position held by Friedrich Ebert; this Kaiser unlike the previous one was unwilling to share power with his Chancellor. Now, after the war and the Treaty of Versailles the Weimar Republic did have a President, the first of whom just happened to be Friedrich Ebert again. The President in the Weimar Republic system is role unlike that of the US president since the Weimar Republic was a semi presidential system and the power was split with the chancellor.

The reichsmark was the currency of the Weimar republic during the '20s. The Weimar republic was the German government established by the Treaty of Versailles. The reichsmark was printed in massive quantities during the 1920s, which led to extreme inflation. A simple loaf of bread could cost an entire wheelbarrow full of reichsmarks. The German people often burned Reichsmarks to provide heat, because the money was worth less than the wood.
No. However there were many high-denomination bills printed during the hyperinflation period of the Weimar Republic, 1922-23.
During the 1920s
A great many delegates from all over Germany attended the convention in Weimar in 1919 to help create a new constitution. The primary author of the constitution was Hugo Preuss, an attorney and liberal politician. Preuss was also a Jew, a fact that the Nazis were able to use to their advantage during their later campaigns to replace the Weimar Republic with an authoritarian Nazi state.
Gustav Stresemann provided workable solutions to many of the problems the Weimar Republic faced. He worked hard to regain the trust that Germany had lost during the war. He used diplomacy to persuade the French to leave the Ruhr when Germany failed to make a Reparation payment. To curb the country's inflation, he replaced Germany's old money with the Rentenmark.
