Why did the Treaty of Versailles have such a negative effect on Germany?
Can you tell me more about why the Treaty of Versailles had such a negative effect on Germany?
The Treaty of Versailles imposed heavy penalties on Germany, including significant territorial losses, demilitarization, and massive reparations payments. This caused economic hardship and political instability in the country, leading to the rise of extremist political parties and ultimately contributing to World War II.
