Which problem increased greatly in Germany due to the Great Depression of 1929?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Unemployment
The governing concept is the social and economic impact of the Great Depression on the Weimar Republic. After the financial crisis began in 1929, American loans to Germany were withdrawn, factories reduced production or closed, banks failed, and millions of workers lost their jobs. Unemployment and poverty therefore increased sharply. This crisis weakened public confidence in democratic governments and made extremist promises, including Nazi promises of jobs and national recovery, more attractive to many voters. Option A is correct because unemployment was the most direct and important consequence listed. Sea trade, royal marriage, and church festivals were not the central economic problems created by the Depression.
