Seite 1

A Bill of Rights guaranteed every German citizen freedom of speech and religion, and equality under the law.

All men and women over the age of 20 were given the vote. This was even better than Britain where only women over 30 could vote.

There was an elected president and an elected Reichstag (parliament).

The Reichstag made the laws and appointed the government, which had to do what the Reichstag wanted.
