		Many of them joined the Freikorps, a collection of volunteer quasi-military units that were involved in revolution and border clashes between 1918 and 1923.
		Limited by treaty to a total of 100,000 men, the Reichswehr was composed of the Reichsheer[?], an army consisting of two group commands, seven infantry divisions[?], and three cavalry divisions[?], and the Reichsmarine, a navy limited to a handful of ships.
		Despite the limitations on size, research and development went on, and during this time many of the future leaders of the Wehrmacht, for instance, Heinz Guderian, first formulated the ideas that they were to use so effectively a few years later.

		In fact, most of the vintage WWI Reichsmarine ships would go on to become an actual part of the new Kriegsmarine, and many of the major ships of the Kriegsmarine were launched during the Reichsmarine period.

	the kriegsmarine
		Due to ongoing British fears of the German threat to its long-held supremacy on the high seas, the Imperial German navy (or Reichsmarine, as it was to become known in 1921) was to say the least derisory, a once-grand force reduced to a flotilla of dredgers, tug-boats and old battleships that had seen better days.
		Much of the blame inside Germany for Versailles had been placed on the Navy; the unrestricted U-boat campaign in particular was seen by many as one of the key factors behind the harsh restrictions that had been imposed on the Germany military in general.
		At the beginning of October 1928 the development of the Reichsmarine as a potential fighting force was placed in the hands of one man - Erich Raeder, a career sailor and First World War veteran who was the master of his craft.

		Germany was limited by the treaty of Versailles only to building replacements for her six pre-dreadnought coast defense battleships, and they were to displace only 10 000 tons and have guns no larger than 11 inch (28 cm) caliber.
		Finally, her armament of two triple 11 inch turrets, although impressive, was ludicrously heavy for a mere commerce raider and not capable of rapid fire against a fast moving target.
		Although the Reichsmarine claimed the right to build five more Panzerschiffe, only two more, the Admiral Graf Spee and the Admiral Scheer, were built.

		When the new Reichsmarine was founded on 31 March 1921, its leaders foresaw Germany going to war with an alliance of France and Poland.
		The Reichsmarine’s first ships were a passel of leftover veterans of the pre-dreadnought era: eight battleships and eight light cruisers, plus 12 destroyers and 12 torpedo boats.
		Though this came after the republic’s fall, she was part of the Reichsmarine program rather than the Nazi one that followed.

		The son of a Dresden music teacher who had founded the First Halle Conservatory for Music, Theater and Teaching, Heydrich joined the Freikorps in 1919 and was strongly influenced in his early years by the racial fanaticism of voelkisch circles.
		On 30 March 1922 he entered the Reichsmarine in Kiel, serving for a time under Wilhelm Canaris who nurtured his taste for naval intelligence work.
		In 1931 Heydrich was forced to resign from the navy by Admiral Raeder for 'conduct unbecoming to an officer and a gentleman', after compromising the virtue of a shipyard director's daughter.

	Rheinmetall AG - Naval artillery posed special challenges to engineers: the Navy ordered guns from Heinrich Ehrhardt too
		Rheinmetall scored a further success when the company's unit in Sömmerda was licensed as the sole German manufacturer of fuses and detonators for military and naval applications.
		One of the most famous ships of the Weimar era to be equipped with Rheinmetall guns was the light cruiser Königsberg, which was launched in 1927 at the Reichsmarine shipyard in Wilhelmshaven.
		The two largest German warships, the Bismarck and the Tirpitz, both of which were launched in 1939, were likewise equipped with large-calibre cannon from Krupp and medium-calibre guns made by Rheinmetall-Borsig, which the Bismarck used to defend itself in the epic sea battle of 1941, albeit ultimately in vain.

		The Reichsmarine also received its fair share of funding, including several new capital ships not to mention many flottillas of destroyers and a new type of submarine.

		The existing plans to extend the Reichsmarine primarily benefit the Kriegsmarine branch with the Bismarck class battleships Grossdeutchland and Friedrich der Grosse, the Admiral Hipper of the new and eponymous 10000 ton heavy cruiser class and three destroyer flotillas currently laid down in our dockyards.
