The West Bank of the Rhineland was occupied from 1920-30, together with two 50 km 'bridge-heads', one at Cologne, the other at Mainz. In addition, in Januray 1923 France and Belgium occupied the Ruhr claiming thatGermany haddefaulted on reparations. This attempt to go beyond the Versailles Treaty and set up a puppet state in the Ruhrunder French rule was vastly more unpopular in Germany than the Versailles Treaty. It really made the French and Belgians absolutely hated in Germany. The British government distanced itself from the occupation of the Ruhr and ceased co-operating with France on a wide range of matters.
