Reply to comment by PersimmonAny5146 in Treaty of Versailles being ‘too harsh’ by -Mothman_

Hyperinflation was caused by the grossly inept war time economic management so the fault of Germany. Germany was hit so hard because the German Government -deliberately- made the depression worse to get out of paying reparations
