Alright, so you know that the Treaty of Versailles was a 1919 peace-treaty between several countries created after World War I. Most of its terms were specifically thrown at Germany, with the Allies punishing Germany in a way that they would never start a war again.
The three main terms of the Treaty of Versailles were...
> Germany had to accept full responsibility for the war.
> Germany had to lose many of its territories and lands.
> Germany couldn't have a military with more than 100,000 men. They also couldn't have any tanks, aircraft, etc.
> Germany had to pay war reparations up to $6,600 billion. They had to pay off so much money that it wasn't fully done until 2010!
So basically, the country was stripped of everything and in ruins.
The Allies set these harsh terms for one reason: Germany would know that their actions had consequences and that they mustn't even think about starting another war ever again. There's just one problem though:
Germany didn't start World War I. Austria-Hungary did, and Germany was only its ally so they had no choice but to join the chain reaction.
As a result of the Treaty, the German people were absolutely furious. They resented the Allies more than anything else, and felt that they were being punished unfairly. Germany was a major wreck after the Great War, and these terms made the country's conditions even worse. In fact, it was the Treaty of Versailles that made people like Hitler rise up to glory. He used the Germans' anger and resent of the Allies to gain more power, and eventually the German people would give in, leading to World War II.
Hope this helps, and good luck! :)

Full Question:
Which of the following scenarios would most likely result in an increase of a country’s literacy rate?
A. The French stock market crashes horribly.
B. Thailand builds more public and private schools.
C. The gap between the rich and the poor widens in China.
D. Peace negotiations between North Korea and South Korea break down.
Answer:
B. Thailand builds more public and private schools.
Explanation:
There are two main causes of illiteracy that many poor countries experience today :
- Lack of resources (this includes skill teachers, text books, school buildings)
- Even if the resource exist, many of them couldn't afford it.
This is why building more public and private schools could increase the country's literacy rate. The private schools was made to take students from family who can afford to pay for the cost of education. The money will be distributed to the public schools which were targeted toward students who came from poor economic background.
