    The correct answer is A.

    Germany had been considered guilty for all the losses beared during WWI and was oblied, through the Treaty of Versailles signed in 1919, to pay economic reparations to some of the victorious powers. It was also forced to delimitarize and to keep its armed forces and weapon production at a minimum.

    This requirements severely damaged the German economy, causing a big recession and even an hyperinflation crisis. Germans felt humilliated and this is one of reasons why, when right-wing extremist and nationalist forces, leaded by Hitler, emerged promising to stop that situation and to restore German pride and to put Germany in the position it deserved as the strongest European power, Germans supported Hitler. Moreover, Hitler blamed Jews for all the miseries that the German people were suffering as Jews were mostly rich while Germans had lost everything during the crisis. German people believed these arguments and started to share Hitler's antisemitic ideas too.
