# Dawes Plan Stabilizes German Economy

> The American-brokered reparations plan revived Germany's finances and enabled temporary stability, though it masked structural weaknesses exposed later.

## Summary

The Dawes Plan temporarily resolved the issue of the reparations that Germany owed to the Allies of World War I. Enacted in 1924, it ended the crisis in European diplomacy that occurred after French and Belgian troops occupied the Ruhr in response to Germany's failure to meet its reparations obligations.
