In 1919, many Germans sought revenge due to the harsh terms imposed by the Treaty of Versailles following World War I. The treaty blamed Germany for the war, leading to significant territorial losses, military restrictions, and heavy reparations that humiliated the nation. This sense of injustice and national humiliation fostered widespread resentment and a desire for retribution against the Allied powers. The desire for revenge would later contribute to the rise of extremist movements in Germany, including the Nazi Party.
