Question 9 • SA CR World History Semester 1 Knapp

Which was an economic effect of the Treaty of Versailles?

Answer
A
The allies were forced to pay reparations to the Central Powers.
B
The mandate system seized European colonies in southwest Asia.
C
Military spending increased as Germany expanded the size of its military.
D
Production and trade were disrupted as new borders were created across the region.

Explanation

The Treaty of Versailles redrew borders in Europe, creating new countries and dividing some regions. These changes disrupted established production networks and trade routes, making “Production and trade were disrupted as new borders were created across the region” the correct choice. Germany, rather than the Allies, was required to pay reparations, and the treaty restricted Germany’s military instead of allowing it to expand.
