Germany fires up the printing presses to print more money: hyperinflation ensues.

In order to meet its obligations, Germany fires up the printing presses to print more money: hyperinflation ensues

11 November 1918. The Great War is finally over. A new era is about to start. Amidst the grief, disappointment and old fears, new dreams and hopes are now emerging but so too are new hatreds.

Clash of Futures explores the dramatic era of the 1920s and ‘30s following the fates of extraordinary men and women using their own diary entries, letters and memoirs. These are people drawn into the war by their convictions, who with their loves and decisions bring the history of Europe with all its contradictions to life.

Everyone who dreams of a communist society longs to be in Moscow. Intellectuals and freedom fighters from across Europe flock there like pilgrims. Germany's economy is on the floor, the state is bankrupt in 1923. In order to meet its obligations, Germany fires up the printing presses to print more money: hyperinflation ensues. 

11 Samhain, 1918. Tha An Cogadh Mòr seachad mu dheireadh thall. Toiseach linn ùr. Am measg caoidh, briseadh-dùil agus seann eagail, tha bruadair is dòchas a' nochdadh às ùr, ach tha agus fuathan ùra cuideachd.

Tha "Eadar Na Dhà" a' toirt sùil air na ficheadan 's na tritheadan, a' leantainn sgeulachdan fir is mnathan sònraichte tro na leabhraichean-latha, litrichean is aithrisean aca fhèin. Tharraing na beachdan aca an fheadhainn seo dhan chogadh agus tha sgeulachd nan co-dhùnaidhean is nan gràdhan aca a' toirt sealladh air eachdraidh thoinnte na h-Eòrpa.

Tha a' huile neach a mhiannaicheadh sòisealtas Chomannach ag iarraidh a bhith ann am Mosgo. Coltach ri taistealaich, tha luchd-smuain agus ceatharnaich saorsa a' taomadh ann bho air feadh na Roinn Eòrpa. Tha eaconamaidh na Gearmailt briste, 's an stàite gun airgead. Ann an oidhirp an dleastanas a choilionadh, tha A' Ghearmailt a' clò-bhualadh an tuilleadh airgid: a' ciallachadh atachas gun rian.
