Solution
The correct option is C Rhineland
To prevent any new attack upon France or Belgium, by the treaty of Versailles, Germany was forbidden to keep soldiers or maintain fortifications in the Rhine valley. The Rhineland was to be occupied by the Allies. The area on the east bank of the Rhine was to be demilitarised.
