The Rhineland is the region in Germany around the Rhine River, so it borders with France and Belgium. After Germany agreed to the armistice on November 11, 1918, Allied troops entered the Rhineland to enforce the armistice.
The Treaty of Versailles forbade Germany from keeping armies in the Rhineland- they would be a threat to France and Belgium. The treaty also legitimated the occupation that was occurring at the time, and allowed it to last until 1935 (it didn't last that long however). Another important part of the treaty was that Germany had to pay back France and Belgium for damages those countries suffered during the war- these repayments included Germany having to give them coal and timber.
In the early 1920's, Germany was unable to make their payments (despite having the payments significantly lowered), so France temporarily re-invaded a part of the Rhineland called the Ruhr. Germany had a lot of coal and factories in the region, and France wanted to force Germany to pay by simply taking the stuff directly from them.
