CLEP Western Civ II

Category - Interwar

Which of the following provided some economic relief to Germany in the interwar period?
  1. The Kellogg-Briand Agreement
  2. The Treaty of Locarno
  3. The Dawes Plan
  4. The Marshall Plan
  5. The Little Entente
Explanation
Answer: C - The Dawes Plan offered economic relief to Germany after World War I. Germany simply could not handle the reparations payments ordered in the Treaty of Versailles. Germany's inability to pay created a domino effect as other European nations defaulted on loans because of Germany's failure to pay. The United States interceded with the Dawes Plan, which reorganized the German payment plan so that Germany could secure foreign loans.
