What did the Treaty of Versailles mean for Germany and for Europe?

- war guilt clause

- reparations

- military

- land

- peace keeping

For Germany the Treaty of Versailles meant harsh "reparations", a diminished land holding, and war guilt, since almost every nation blamed Germany for the outbreak of war. These reparations, however, proved to do more harm than good, since they humiliated Germany and made Germans far more aggressive in re-building their military and beginning World War II.
