National League of German Democratic Youth Clubs

The National League of German Democratic Youth Clubs (German: Reichsbund der Deutschen Demokratischen Jugend) was a political youth movement in Weimar Germany, functioning as the youth wing of the German Democratic Party (DDP). The organization was founded in April 1919 and was led by Max Weissner.^[1]^[2] The club spoke out with other youth clubs against "the excessive claims of the princes."^[3] During the initial phase of the Weimar Republic, the youth league had around 20,000 members across Germany. However, the organization went into a spiral of decline. By the end of 1926 its membership was below 2,300.^[2]
