Many of the German troops couldn’t believe it – they believed they were winning the war. The only explanation to many of these soldiers is that the Otto Frank (left) and his brother government had ‘stabbed them in the back.’ Robert (right) both fought for Germany in WW1 The loss of the war meant that Germany had to sign the Treaty of Versailles. One of the clauses in this treaty was that they accepted the blame for the war. Many people thought this was deeply unfair. Germany had no choice but to sign, leaving them to pay huge reparations— A protest about the Treaty of Versailles in Berlin in 1932. £6.6 BILLION. This bankrupted Germany, leading to hyperinflation (money becoming worthless), huge unemployment and starvation of people. More and more Germans began to believe the ‘Stab in the Back’ theory, which blamed the Jews for the loss in the war.

Although Germany did begin to recover in the 1920s with the help of the Dawes Plan (where America loaned Germany $45million and gave them longer to repay the war debt) many former soldiers especially still believed they’d been betrayed.

  • Annual Town Report to Sandy Kady
    Annual Report Of the Town of Brookfield, Massachusetts 2017 BROOKFIELD COMMON NATIONAL HISTORIC DISTRICT A WALKING GUIDE A Guide to the Architectural Highlights of the District Early English travelers between Massachusetts Bay and the Connecticut River Valley noted the fine agricultural Indian lands of the Quaboag Valley. A group of business minded colonists, predominantly from Ipswich, obtained a grant for a plantation in 1660, known as Quaboag, and began to settle five years later. The settlement was spread across what is known today as Foster Hill and down the eastern slope along Devil’s Elbow Road and past Hovey Brook. In 1673 the plantation was incorporated as the town of Brookfield. The isolated town grew until 1675, when it was attacked and burned in the “Seige of Brookfield” during the King Philip’s War. The town lay almost abandoned until a resettlement grew cautiously in the 1680s. In 1701 Brookfield was expanded to an eight-mile square entity, and in 1718 became self-governing. There is much to be told of the early history and the many personages who lived here, made their mark and moved on. As a member of the “Quaboag Towns” we look at the large landscape that was once Brookfield and the many divisions that came about from the original eight square miles. With well over 350 years of history and hundreds of archived pages, we hope you will enjoy the walking guide through highlights of the district as you learn of our truly fascinating past.
