c. germany was forced to pay a large sum of money to keep its colonies.
d. german colonies were given to the new nations of serbia and croatia.

Explanation:

The Treaty of Versailles mandate system did not grant independence to most German colony natives (A is wrong). Germany was stripped of colonies, not forced to pay to keep them (C is wrong). Serbian - Croatian regions were not major recipients of German colonies via the mandate system (D is wrong). The Allied powers took over German colonies under the mandate system and often exploited their resources for profit.

Answer:

B. Allied powers took over German colonies and profited from them.
