1. The treaties ending World War I were negotiated in Paris in mid-1919 by delegates of the victorious Allies.

2. There were many delegates but the negotiations were dominated by the leaders of France, Britain and the US.

3. French leader Clemenceau urged strong punitive measures against Germany, to prevent the prospect of another war.

4. The Treaty of Versailles, deemed Germany to be entirely responsible for the war and liable to pay reparations.

5. The terms of the treaty were severe, restricting Germany's industrial production and military; this was widely supported in Britain and France but caused outrage in Germany.
