The German Musicians' Union (German : Deutscher Musiker-Verband, DeMuV) was a trade union representing musicians in Germany.
The union was founded on 1 July 1919, when the General German Musicians' Union merged with the Central Union of Civilian Musicians in Germany. It affiliated to the General German Trade Union Confederation, and opened an office in Berlin. [1]
The union had about 50,000 members on its formation, but this fell rapidly. It complained that there were too many foreign musicians in the country, "often disreputable persons from other professions who band together in Germany to form so-called Hungarian, jazz, or balalaika ensembles and undercut domestic musicians". [2] By 1931, the union had 23,509 members, and was led by Gottlieb Fauth. It published the Deutsche Musiker-Zeitung newspaper. [1]
In 1933, the union was banned by the Nazi government.
The German Olympic Sports Confederation was founded on 20 May 2006 by a merger of the Deutscher Sportbund (DSB), and the Nationales Olympisches Komitee für Deutschland (NOK) which dates back to 1895, the year it was founded and recognized as NOC by the IOC.
The General German Trade Union Federation was a confederation of German trade unions in Germany founded during the Weimar Republic. It was founded in 1919 and was initially powerful enough to organize a general strike in 1920 against a right-wing coup d'état. After the 1929 Wall Street crash, the ensuing global financial crisis caused widespread unemployment. The ADGB suffered a dramatic loss of membership, both from unemployment and political squabbles. By the time the Nazis seized control of the government, the ADGB's leadership had distanced itself from the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD) and was openly cooperating with Nazis in an attempt to keep the organization alive. Nonetheless, on May 2, 1933, the SA and SS stormed the offices of the ADGB and its member trade unions, seized their assets and arrested their leaders, crushing the organization.
The General Commission of German Trade Unions was an umbrella body for German trade unions during the German Empire, from the end of the Anti-Socialist Laws in 1890 up to 1919. In 1919, a successor organisation was named the Allgemeiner Deutscher Gewerkschaftsbund, and then in 1949, the current Deutscher Gewerkschaftsbund was formed.

Reichsvereinigung der Deutschen Gewerkschaften was a trade union centre in the First Czechoslovak Republic. The organization had its headquarters on Krakovská street 11 in Prague. Initially the Reichsvereinigung grouped all the main German nationalist, or völkisch, trade unions in the Sudetenland. As of 1921, the affiliates of the Reichsvereinigung claimed to have 49,500 members. By the end of 1928, the organization claimed to have 51,500 members. The Reichsvereinigung was a supposedly apolitical body for German workers.
Verband deutscher Gewerkschaften was a German Nazi trade union centre in Czechoslovakia. The organization was formed in 1929, by eight unions that broke away from the Reichsvereinigung der deutscher Gewerkschaften. At the time of the founding of Verband deutscher Gewerkschaften, its affiliates claimed a combined membership of 46,700. The organization had its headquarters in Ústí nad Labem.
