Do you agree or disagree with the content. Predict how you think Versailles will affect the political climate in Germany and all of Europe?

The terms of the treaty seem harsh but reasonable under the circumstances. It seems like the winner should have the right to put restrictions on military buildup and return lands gained from battle. Making Germany claim responsibility for the war and pay reparations and pensions may have been too much for them to take on. This would be hard for Germany since they had spent so much on the war, and they would be mad.

This would probably not be the best situation for the political climate in Europe because the countries would all be mad at each other.
