The Ruhr is a river in germany.
The immediate trigger was the French (and Belgian) occupation of the Ruhr in January 1923, followed by the German campaign of passive resistance.
There is no direct link between the two. In 1923 France and Belgium occupied the Ruhr, which was Germany's leading industrial area. The reason given was that Germany had allegedly defaulted on reparations. The Germans responded with a policy of passive resistance, that is non-cooperation; but there was also some active resistance and a number of inhabitants of the Ruhr were shot by the French. The whole business was very damaging to the German economy. What outraged Germans (and also the British government) was that France went *beyond* the conditions of the Versailles Treaty. One of the French aims was to set up a separate republic in the Ruhr and the Rhineland. It created much bitterness. The whole business of going beyond Versailles probably caused even more resentment than the Versailles Treaty itself. Despite all this, Germany recovered from the effects of the occupation quickly and from 1924 onwards enjoyed some of the prosperity of the Roaring Twenties.
