The War caused the 70% collapse and was one long 6 year depression.
The period after the War is literally referred to as the Golden Age of Capitalism because of the unprecedented levels of growth.
The depopulation during the War didn't cause a post-war depression. It did the complete opposite.

"Collapse" is a strong word. Either way, I have provided the evidence, you are more than welcome to read it.

I did read it.

"By the end of the war, the European economy had collapsed with some 70% of its industrial infrastructure destroyed."
