The correct answer is: C. After World War I, Germany was humiliated and struggled economically; after World War II, Germany was given financial aid and the opportunity to rebuild

Step-by-step explanation:

After World War I, the participating countries discussed peace agreements, one of those was The Treaty of Versailles, in this, the winner countries forced Germany and its allies to pay high clauses, grant territory and accept the fault of starting the World War I, because of this Germany had to struggle economically and was humiliated by others. On the other hand, after World War II, Germany was divided between two hegemonic blocks, one was governed by Soviet Union (Communist) and the other by the United States and United Kindom (Capitalist); additionally to this, Germany was part of the Marshall Plan that helped European countries that had been devastated in World War II through financial assistance, which means different to the first War Germany had some financial support to rebuild. So, the correct answer is After World War I, Germany was humiliated and struggled economically; after World War II, Germany was given financial aid and the opportunity to rebuild
