Question

Predict how the treaty of versailles would affect international conflicts after world war 1

Answer 1

The treaty of Versailles placed Germany, only one of the countries involved in World War 1, under full blame for the war and its aftermath. It forced the already decimated Germany to pay for the allies' damages, and to decrease its military might to something so small it could barely maintain internal unity. This put the country into extreme debt and brought German morale to an all-time low. The treaty paved the way for Hitler's extremist views coming into popularity with many of the lower-class citizens. Some say that the treaty is the leading cause of World War 2 as it caused Germany to feel complete hatred and fear for the allies, and failed to put proper restrictions onto German military.
