Who Are You in 1920s Germany?

In the 1920s and 1930s, Germany was ravaged by political instability, social crisis, and economic collapse. From the chaos of the 1919 Revolution to the Nazi seizure of power in 1933, Germany was embroiled in an ever-changing and increasingly unstable political scene, with the young republic challenged on all sides by communists, fascists, and many others.

Who would you be in 1920s/30s Germany? Would you be a weary republican, just hoping for the system to survive another day? an idealistic revolutionary with dreams of a better future? Or a sinister force, emerging from the darkness, waiting to plunge Germany into war once again...?
