Revision tip and answer preparation

Revision tip

To become familiar with these events, identify the facts and arguments you would use to support these statements about the Munich Putsch:

  • 'It was a squalid little failure that we would ignore nowadays if Hitler hadn't eventually come to power.'
  • 'Hitler would have had no chance of ever gaining power without the failure of the Munich Putsch.'

Answer preparation

As part of your revision, think about the arguments and facts you would use to explain:

  1. What happened in the Munich Putsch.
  2. Why Hitler attempted the Munich Putsch in 1923.
  3. How the Nazi Party was affected by the Munich Putsch.

Think carefully about what the question is asking before you answer. A question on why the Munich Putsch happened will need a very different answer to a question on what happened in the Munich Putsch, or how the Munich Putsch affected the Nazi party.
