B Correct answer
Explanation

The Treaty of Versailles (1919) explicitly blamed Germany and its allies for starting World War I in its 'War Guilt Clause' (Article 231). This assigned full responsibility to Germany and required them to pay reparations. England and her allies were on the winning side, Serbia was where the war started but wasn't blamed, and Austria was Germany's ally.
