Answer:

A. Preventing Germany from building a military.

Step-by-step explanation:

Following the defeat of Germany in World War II, the Allied Control Council (ACC) ordered for the demobilization of Germany's armed forces, known as the Wehrmacht. Wehrmacht was disbanded and replaced by the ordinary police force called the Bundeswehr to undertake the security and public safety. The Bundeswehr became more of a undercover armed forces that is disguised as a police force, though they still had to abide by most of the strict rules applied by the ACC. The Bundeswehr has ordered and used in many cases military-style equipment, but is still in no case a properly designated as a military.
