World War Two
Season 8 Episode 20 - When Stalin and Hitler Teamed Up – Prussia 1931 - Rise of Hitler 20, August 1931
August 1931: Prussia becomes the battleground as a bizarre alliance of Nazis, Communists (under Stalin’s orders), right-wing elites, and President Hindenburg tries to topple Germany’s last major democracy. With foreign meddling, political violence, and backroom deals, the fate of the Weimar Republic hangs by a thread. Against all odds, the democratic coalition prevails—at least for now. But with chaos spreading and the world watching, can democracy survive the next assault?
