Answer:

B. The war reparations clause indebting Germany for $33 billon

Step-by-step explanation:

the pf text book states the following:

"The Treaty of Versailles discussed many details to end World War I. The Treaty said Germany had to...pay nearly $33 billion in war reparations."

the lesson goes on to explain that the new German government was weak, and struggled to pay the reparations. This lead to a period of extreme hyperinflation which lasted two years.

Hope this helps!!
