The situation in the Ruhr, was just one of many complicated and unintended consequences of the Treaty of Versailles.In 1922, the German government asked the Allies for a moratorium on WW 1 reparation payments. This was due to economic shambles that were occurring in Germany. France refused this request. When Germany failed to deliver the timber to France as part of the Treaty, French troops were ordered in to occupy the Ruhr. This area supplied most of Germany's coal and steel production. Economic matters went from terrible to a point of critical mass. The workers there called a general strike and the area was immobilized. This caused an increase of German nationalism.
