What political challenge did Brüning face when he became chancellor?

  • World War II

  • The Great Depression

  • The Cold War

  • German reunification

Answer

The Great Depression, a global economic crisis that began in the United States in the 1930s, posed significant political challenges for Chancellor Brüning's government in Germany. The economic downturn led to widespread unemployment, social unrest, and political instability, which weakened Brüning's position and made it difficult to implement effective policies to address the crisis.
