The pact of Versailles was fairly negative to Germany on the grounds that it destroyed their economy even more. The terms for the treaty had been for Germany to take responsibility for their actions. The treaty of Versailles called to take away German territories and colonies‚ reduce Germany’s armed forces‚ make them disarm and to also have them pay reparations to the allies for the damage caused by the war.

According to TCI‚ pg 318‚ “In addition‚ the treaty required Germany to pay $33 billion in reparations to the Allies.

I agree with this statement to a certain extent. The treaty of Versailles only provoked revenge from the German nation. The humiliation of war guilt and the reparations charges were a bitter end to the Germans exit from World War One.

The fourteen points were unfair and written in British and French anger at the upsetting loss of life. A way of ensuring a long-term peace‚ better relations but

The Treaty of Versailles was designed to put an end to the German menace. Although is was designed to create some sort of peace‚ the treaty was unsuccessful. It ended up setting the stage for WWII. Four major points that came up with‚ and in‚ the treaty that lent themselves to its failure were Article 231‚ reparations‚ the exclusion of Wilson’s 14 points‚ and the weakness of the League of Nations.
