Why did money in Europe become worthless after World War 1?
It was more the economy of Germany that became worthless. After loosing the war, Germany was forced to pay reparations, under the Treaty of Versailles. The total money owed was 269,000,000,000 in gold marks (German currency). That much in gold coins equaled about 233,405,018 lbs of pure gold. In trying to cover it's debts, Germany began printing money, which lead to severe hyperinflation of national prices. This hyperinflation caused instability in the economy and the German mark to be useless. Germany had also been accepting loan offers from various countries to help pay the reparations. In 1929, when the Stock Market Collapsed, many of these loans were called in, and Germany had to pay out substantial amounts of money.
Why were the European Allies more interested in retribution?
The European allies focused on rebuilding themselves after wars, and believed that they should not have to pay to repair their nations because they did not cause the damage. After World War one the focus was on the destruction cause by bombings, which required a lot of time, labor, and money for the allied nations to fix. They wanted Germany to cover these costs because Germany did the damage. The allies asked Germany to pay reparations and to change their governing system. After World War two the focus was on making sure Germany was not able to be an aggressor again. Land was taken away, Germany's advanced scientific and technological industries were limited, and they had to pay reparations to the allies.
Why were the reparations from World War 1 not get fully paid off before World War 2 was it because Germany couldn't manage them financially or was it because they refused to pay?
The economists told the writers of the Versailles Treaty that Germany simply did not have the money to pay the amount they were demanding. They told them it would take until 1988 for Germany to pay the debt back. It was basically an impossible demand and Germany would never have been able to pay it all back.
