To determine the order from most to least of countries based on their total indirect costs from WWI, we'll need to sum the property damage, loss of life, and shipping losses for each country.

Let's break down the calculation for each country:

1. United Kingdom:
- Property Damage: \[tex]$1.8 billion - Loss of Life: \$[/tex]3.5 billion
- Shipping Losses: \[tex]$3.9 billion - Total Costs: \$[/tex]1.8 + \[tex]$3.5 + \$[/tex]3.9 = \[tex]$9.2 billion 2. France: - Property Damage: \$[/tex]10.0 billion
- Loss of Life: \[tex]$4.8 billion - Shipping Losses: \$[/tex]0.5 billion
- Total Costs: \[tex]$10.0 + \$[/tex]4.8 + \[tex]$0.5 = \$[/tex]15.3 billion

3. Russia:
- Property Damage: \[tex]$1.2 billion - Loss of Life: \$[/tex]8.1 billion
- Shipping Losses: \[tex]$0.9 billion - Total Costs: \$[/tex]1.2 + \[tex]$8.1 + \$[/tex]0.9 = \[tex]$10.2 billion 4. Germany: - Property Damage: \$[/tex]1.8 billion
- Loss of Life: \[tex]$6.8 billion - Shipping Losses: \$[/tex]0.1 billion
- Total Costs: \[tex]$1.8 + \$[/tex]6.8 + \[tex]$0.1 = \$[/tex]8.7 billion

Now, ordering these countries by their total costs from most to least, we get:

1. France: \[tex]$15.3 billion 2. Russia: \$[/tex]10.2 billion
3. United Kingdom: \[tex]$9.2 billion 4. Germany: \$[/tex]8.7 billion

Therefore, the correct order from most to least of countries that had total indirect costs from WWI is:
France, Russia, United Kingdom, Germany.
