Answer:

Germany was, indeed, especially hard-hit by the Great Depression. A major factor was the Treaty of Versailles, which was supposed to settle outstanding disputes following the cessation of hostilities in World War I. ... This provision effectively prevented many German industries from selling their goods in foreign markets.

hoped this help, sorry if im wrong :)
