During World War II, the Nazi regime in Germany engaged in the burning of books in order to censor and eliminate materials considered to be subversive or contrary to their ideology. The infamous event known as the "Nazi book burnings" took place on May 10, 1933, in cities across Germany. Thousands of books were destroyed, including works by Jewish, Marxist, and other "undesirable" authors.

Among the books targeted during the Nazi book burnings were works by renowned authors such as:

- Thomas Mann
- Bertolt Brecht
- Sigmund Freud
- Albert Einstein
- Karl Marx
- Ernest Hemingway
- Helen Keller

These burnings were part of the broader campaign to impose ideological conformity and suppress dissenting views in Germany at that time.

As for the conspiracy theories surrounding the book burnings, some suggest that certain secret societies or groups may have hidden certain texts before the burnings took place. However, these claims lack strong evidence and are largely not supported by historical documentation.

The Nazi book burnings are a dark chapter in history that serves as a stark reminder of the dangers of censorship and the suppression of intellectual freedom. It is essential to remember and learn from these events to safeguard freedom of expression and the importance of diverse viewpoints in society.

Regarding the books that were burned by the Nazis during WWII, it is true that many works considered "degenerate" or "un-German" were targeted, including those that touched on themes of sexuality and gender, such as works discussing sexual deprivation, homosexuality, and other related topics. The Nazis sought to suppress any literature that they deemed to be at odds with their ideology, which included condemning and attempting to erase LGBTQ+ perspectives and voices from public discourse.

As for the claim that the book burnings were carried out to destabilize German society after the central bankers devalued the currency, there is no direct evidence to support this assertion. The primary motivation behind the book burnings was ideological censorship and the suppression of dissenting voices, rather than a response to economic events such as currency devaluation.

Regarding the timeline of the German currency from 1900 to the end of WWII, here is a brief overview:

- Before World War I: The German currency, the Mark, was relatively stable. However, the outbreak of World War I led to economic strain and inflation.
- 1920s: Following World War I, Germany faced hyperinflation, leading to the devaluation of the Mark. This period of economic turmoil had significant social and political consequences.
- 1930s: The global economic depression, combined with the reparations Germany had to pay after World War I, further strained the German economy. This economic instability contributed to the rise of the Nazi party.
- 1940s: During World War II, the German economy was focused on supporting the war effort, leading to additional inflation and economic hardships for the general population.
- End of WWII: By the end of WWII in 1945, Germany was in ruins both economically and socially, with the currency in disarray.

The German currency was under the control of various entities at different points in history, including the German government, the Reichsbank (the central bank of Germany), and ultimately the Nazi regime during WWII. The economic history of Germany during this period was deeply intertwined with political events, leading to significant instability and hardship for the population.

Who profited from Germanys failure? Both in banking & manufacturing?

During times of economic turmoil, such as Germany's struggles post-World War I and during the Great Depression, various individuals and groups may have been able to profit from the country's difficulties. It's important to note that the situation was complex, and while some may have benefitted financially, the overall impact on society was devastating.

1. **Banking Sector**: During times of economic instability and inflation, individuals with knowledge of financial markets and the banking sector could potentially profit by speculating on currency devaluations or investing in assets that maintained or increased their value. It's possible that some individuals within the banking sector may have taken advantage of the economic turmoil to benefit financially.

2. **Manufacturing Sector**: In times of economic crisis, manufacturing industries can be affected differently based on factors such as export markets, access to resources, and government policies. Some manufacturers may have experienced increased demand for goods or services needed during a period of economic distress. Others might have adapted their production to supply specific goods required during wartime, potentially leading to profits for certain companies and individuals involved in the manufacturing sector.

It's worth noting that the vast majority of the German population suffered greatly during periods of economic instability, such as hyperinflation in the 1920s and the Great Depression in the 1930s. While some individuals or entities may have profited from the situation, the broader impact on society was one of hardship, unemployment, poverty, and social upheaval.

Throughout these challenging periods in German history, the complex interplay of economic, political, and social factors influenced who may have profited and who bore the brunt of the economic crises.
