Question

2. The Treaty of Versailles which ended World War one is considered one of the worst treaties in
human history. Many historians agree that the terms of the treaty almost guaranteed that WWII
would occur.

Answer 1

One of the most controversial terms of the treaty was the War Guilt clause, which explicitly and directly blamed Germany for the outbreak of hostilities. The treaty forced Germany to disarm, to make territorial concessions, and to pay reparations to the Allied powers in the staggering amount of $5 billion.
