chrstnwrtr asked:


I remember my professor saying something about this back in my undergraduate years and the question resurfaced in my head.

I was told that France’s economy was more resilient to bounce back from the economic hardship that is the Great Depression unlike other nations (especially Germany).

Was it that they were getting reparations from post-WWI treaties from Germany?

This is out of curiousity.
