Why do you think the delegates at Versailles refused to allow German delegation
timofeeve [1]

They didn’t invite the Germans because they were under the impression that the Germans had surrendered (instead of the cease war that meant neither side won.) Since Germany had “lost,” the loser had no say in the terms of the treaty and was forced to accept it.
