The Treaty of Versailles was first signed on November 11, 1918 after WWI. It was a peace treaty, ending the war of the Allies, Associated Powers and Germany. It took 6 months for the Treaty of Versailles to be signed. Within the Treaty there were many different provisions, the most important one was that Germany must admit that they were the ones who caused the war and except full responsibility for there actions. Germans had to pay for the war and all the damage caused. This caused the Germans to lose a lot of land and have a little army with no air force or submarines. Germans believed it was unfair, but were to weak to fight again. The Weimar government signed. The Germans never forgave the Weimar leaders for this, a lot of them joined new political parties for revenge. Now all the countries involved could live in peace. I believe that whenever war is resolved it is better for all man kind.
