"Production and trade were disrupted as new borders were created across the region."
Explanation: The Treaty redrew borders and broke up empires (Austro-Hungarian, Ottoman, Russian), which disrupted established economic ties, markets, and supply routes. The other options are incorrect: Germany (not the Allies) was required to pay reparations; the mandate system placed former Ottoman territories under Allied trusteeship rather than seizing European colonies; and Germany’s military was limited by the treaty, not expanded.
