Which political group gained fewer seats in the Reichstag by 1928?

The political group that gained fewer seats in the Reichstag by 1928 is the Nazis. In that election, the Nazis, under Adolf Hitler's leadership, were still relatively weak in terms of parliamentary representation. The party had just begun to rise in popularity, but it had not yet become a dominant force in German politics.

By 1928, the political landscape was primarily dominated by other groups, specifically the Social Democrats and the Communists, who managed to secure more seats. The political climate of the time was characterized by the economic recovery of the Weimar Republic, and many voters were still favoring traditional parties rather than the radical solutions proposed by the Nazis. As a result, the significant gains for the Nazis would come later, particularly during the economic turmoil of the early 1930s, rather than in 1928 when their support was still minimal.

Understanding this context is crucial for grasping the dynamics of the Weimar Republic and the eventual rise of the Nazi Party.
