What was Spartacist League?
Answer: The Spartacist League was another political party in Germany that opposed the Weimar Republic.
They supported Soviet-style governance.
They were opposed by the Socialists, Democrats, Catholics and were crushed by the Free Corps.
Later the anguished Spartacists founded the Communist Party of Germany. It led to political radicalisation between Communists and Socialists.
Henceforth they became irreconcilable enemies and could not make common cause against Hitler.
