About Freikorps Oberland
The Freikorps Oberland was a voluntary paramilitary unit that was formed in Bavaria during the early days of the Weimar Republic, following the end of the First World War and the German Revolution of 1918–1919. After overthrowing a short-lived communist government in Bavaria, it was incorporated into the Reichswehr in October 1919 and participated in the suppression of popular insurrections in the Ruhr and Upper Silesia. Reconstituted as the Bund Oberland in October 1921, it participated in Adolf Hitler's failed Beer Hall Putsch of November 1923 before being banned. A final iteration was founded in March 1925 and was eventually largely absorbed into the Sturmabteilung (SA) in March 1933 following the Nazi seizure of power.
