J15P11 MSQn 11(b) Why did the Munich Putsch fail?

Level 4 Explains TWO reasons [6] 

Level 3 Explains ONE reason [4–5] 
(One mark for an explanation, additional mark for full explanation.) e.g. ‘The Munich Putsch failed because Hitler overestimated the level of support he would have. He thought that General Ludendorff would be able to persuade the army to support the putsch, and that leading members of the Bavarian state government would do the same. Hitler was wrong. The army remained loyal to the Weimar government and the Bavarian head of government called out the armed police to break up Hitler’s march through the streets of Munich.’ (5 marks) 

Level 2 Identifies AND/OR describes reasons [2–3] 
(One mark for each identification/description) e.g. ‘The army remained loyal to the Weimar government.’ ‘Hitler had miscalculated the mood of the German people.’ ‘The German people did not rise up to support the putsch.’ ‘Kahr, the head of the Bavarian government, went back on his word to support Hitler.’ ‘Hitler’s Nazi Party was still small.’ 

Level 1 General answer lacking specific contextual knowledge [1] e.g. ‘It failed because it was not well organised.’ Level 0 No evidence submitted or response does not address the question [0]
