51. 25. Over the years, there has been tremendous debate
in Germany whether November 9 should be made a
national holiday. The reasons given by proponents
include that 9th Nov was the end of the 1848
revolution and the date of the 1918 abdication of
Kaiser Wilhelm II and the declaration of the Weimar
republic.
However, 9th Nov is also the anniversary of the 1923
Beer Hall Putsch and the infamous Kristallnacht
attacks of the Nazis in 1938. Finally, as a compromise,
Oct 3rd was chosen as a national holiday.
What was the major reason given by those who wanted
Nov 9th to be made a national holiday?
