The correct response is wartime reparations and hyperinflation. After World War I, Germany was required to pay significant reparations as outlined in the Treaty of Versailles. This financial burden, combined with economic mismanagement and a reliance on borrowing, led to hyperinflation in the early 1920s, drastically diminishing the value of the German mark and causing widespread economic hardship.
