    This treaty was signed after the first World War on June 28, 1919 at the Versailles Palace in Paris, France. They decided to sign here because of its immense size that would hold hundreds of dignitaries. The destruction and death (est. 8.5 million dead, 21 million wounded) was nothing the world had experienced before. Most of the European countries had been turned to rubble, telegraphs were gone, roads gone, homes destroyed, etc. by the German armies. The victors weren't feeling charitable towards them at this time. In the end, land was taken from Germany and given to France, Belgium, Denmark, Poland and Czechoslovakia. Their foreign lands were turned over to the League of nations. The German army was reduced to 100,000 with no air force and only six ships. The war reparations to other countries totaled immense amounts. There were also some other minor details. The Germans did not want to sign but they were only given 2 options - sign or be invaded by the Allies.
