nov 9, 1923 - The Beer Haul Putsch

Description:

Inspired by Mussolini, and hoping to take advantage of discontent from the economic collapse and Ruhr crisis, Hitler with support of the war hero Ludendorff, tries to overthrow the Bavarian government.

He fails, but in the aftermath, the plotters are treated rather leniently. Hitler serves minimal jail time, while Lufendorff is not charged at all.
