Treaty of Versailles
-know what it specifically did and how it helped lead to WWII
it ended world war one it made germany pay for everythign and germeany wanted to ge the land they lost back they signed it in the hall of mirrors germany lost alsace lirraine to france eupen  

 

•Territorial

•The following land was taken away from Germany :

•Alsace-Lorraine (given to France)

•Eupen and Malmedy (given to Belgium)

•Northern Schleswig (given to Denmark)

•Hultschin (given to Czechoslovakia)

•West Prussia, Posen and Upper Silesia (given to Poland)

•The Saar, Danzig and Memel were put under the control of the League of Nations and the people of these regions would be allowed to vote to stay in Germany or not in a future referendum.

•The League of Nations also took control of Germany's overseas colonies.

•Germany had to return to Russia land taken in the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk. Some of this land was made into new states : Estonia, Lithuania and Latvia. An enlarged Poland also received some of this land

 

•Military

•Germany’s army was reduced to 100,000 men; the army was not allowed tanks

•Germany was not allowed an airforce

•Germany was allowed only 6 capital naval ships and     no submarines

•The west of the Rhineland and 50 kms east of the River Rhine was made into a demilitarized zone (DMZ). No German soldier or weapon was allowed into this zone. The Allies were to keep an army of occupation on the west bank of the Rhine for 15 years.

 

•Financial

•The loss of vital industrial territory would be a severe blow to Germany’s economy. Coal from the Saar and Upper Silesia in particular was a vital economic loss.

•Combined with the financial penalties linked to reparations($33 billion), it seemed clear to Germany that the Allies wanted nothing else but to bankrupt them.

•Germany was also forbidden to unite with Austria to form one superstate.

 

 

•1. Germany had to admit full responsibility for starting the war. This was Clause 231 - the infamous "War Guilt Clause".

 

•2. Germany, as it was responsible for starting the war as stated in clause 231, was therefore responsible for all the war damage caused by the First World War. Therefore, they had to pay reparations, the bulk of which would go to France and Belgium to pay for the damage done to both countries by the war. The figure was eventually put at $33 billion .

 

•3. A League of Nations was set up to keep world peace.
