What cause led to the downfall of Hertling's government during World War I?
An economic crisis
A political scandal
A military defeat
Resisting movements towards parliamentary dependence
Answer
Hertling's government fell in 1917 due to a combination of factors, including his resistance to movements towards parliamentary dependence. He refused to make concessions to the Reichstag, which had become increasingly critical of the government's handling of the war. He also failed to resolve the food crisis, which was causing widespread discontent among the population.
