A few questions:
  1. Was Germany actually capable of paying an amount of reparations that could cover the war damages and debt accrued by the Entente?
  2. Was there any way the Entente could have compelled Germany to pay up? Would the Ruhr Valley occupation have worked if it lasted longer? Could some kind agreement in which Anschluss, the Rhineland demilitarization and disarmament would be renegotiated once the debt was payed off work? What about a threat to not withdraw from Saarland?
