6 June 1920: The German federal election—The centre-left coalition in the Reichstag splintered over the bloody suppression of the Ruhr Uprising compared to the lenient approach toward the Kapp Putsch; the Social Democratic Party remained the largest party, but lost a third of its seats; more radical left- & right-wing parties gained seats, charting a course of instability for the Weimar Republic.
