C. They wanted to make sure Germany repaid its reparations this time.

After World War I and the Treaty of Versailles, Germany was required to pay massive reparations to the victorious Allies. However, Germany was not able to fulfill these obligations, which led to economic instability and contributed to the rise of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi party. The Allies, particularly France, were determined to avoid a similar situation after World War II. They wanted to ensure that Germany would repay its debts and prevent the country from becoming a future threat or destabilizing force.
