  •  In Germany had fought the war largely on loans and had to pay war reparation in gold.
  • This depleted gold reserves at a time when resources were scarce. 
  • In 1932, Germany refused to pay, and the French occupied its leading industrial area ‘Ruhr’, to claim their coal. 
  • Germany retaliated with passive resistance and printed paper currency wrecklessly.
  • With too much printed money in circulation, the value of the German mark fell.
  • As the value of the mark collapsed, prices of goods soared.
  • The image of the Germany carrying cartloads of currency notes to buy a loaf of bread was widely publicised.
  • This crisis came to be known as ‘hyper-inflation’, a situation when prices rise phenomenally high.
  •  Eventually, the Americans intervened and bailed Germany out of the crisis by introducing ‘The Dawes Plan’ which reworked the terms of separation to ease the financial burden on Germany.
