Answer is B. Germany was forced to pay the Allied Powers and accept blame for the war.
In the War Guilt Clause (Article 231 of the Treaty of Versailles) it was stated that Germany had the responsibility of beginning WWI. This clause was added to achieve an agreement between France and Belgium so that the monetary sum the Germans would have to pay in compensation for the damage caused was reduced.
This clause was seen as a grant from the negotiators to the Germans. However, it caused a general resentment on the part of German people, since they did not accept the responsibility for the outbreak of the war.
