Why do you think it led to a tragic peace in Europe?

I think the treaty of Versailles led to a tragic peace in europe because the terms were harsh and germany had to pay back millions in debt and had no say in the paris peace conference. The germans were angered by this because they lost most of their coal mines and they turned to people like hitler to rebuild germany . They also had to admit the war was their fault.

The Treaty Of Versailles led to a tragic peace as the Germans had no say over the development of their country or the political control they had as a new government was resumed. This treaty led to a tragic peace as the punishments or enforcements were very harsh on Germany. The Germans were angered as they had to pay millions in reperations and admit the war was their fault. They were further annoyed when they were not represented at the Paris Peace Conference. They also were hugely bitter and frustrated when they had to admit that the war was their fault. This tragic peace soon led to the rise of Hitler who redeemed Germany's confidence but he also caused huge destruction.

I think the Treaty of Versallies led to a Tragic Peace because none of the Germans liked how their country had been taken over or how it was now being run. This is also what had enraged Hitler so much that the country put him in power to essentially "save them". So Hitler became in charge therefore you can see the 'tragic' part of this peace.

the treaty of Versailles led to a tragic peace because the terms were very harsh and they angered the Germans who had to pay millions in reparations and admit the war was their fault. The Germans were also angry because they were not represented at the Paris peace conference so they could not fight for less harsh terms for the treaty. The Germans were also angered because lands were taken off them and the population decreased , they also had to take their military out of the Rhineland and the French then occupied that area. Germany also lost the Saar coal fields so their economy took a big hit because of that.

The treaty of versailles led to a tragic peace because when the war was ended the allies treated germany harshly. Also they were not allowed to represent themselves at the paris peace conference. The germans were angered by this as germany was destroyed so they turned to people like hitler to rebuild germany and its empire.

The treaty of Versailles led to a tragic peace because when the war ended and the allies leaders came together to make justice and peace come to Europe they would absolutely destroy Germany's power and dismantle there country. But all of the allies leaders didn't agree to this in there own mind. President Wilson of the USA didn't want to punish Germany but to bring peace to Europe. The priminister of England George wanted to punish them put not as severe as the French wanted to,

the treaty was a tragic peace because the terms were unfair to Germany and because the germans had no say in the terms of the treaty so they couldnt argue what they Thought was fair

The treaty of Versailles led to a tragic peace as the Germans had no say and the terms were unfair. The allies set rules and made them pay out millions in compensation for them starting the war.

The French want to punished them s they Lost the most of there solider in WW1.

the treaty of Versailles led to a tragic peace because the terms were very harsh on Germany. The Gremans had to pay millions and admit that the war was their fault. The German people were very angry that they wer'nt represented at the treaty of Versaille and people like Adolf Hitler rose to power to try and make Germany a world power again. ق

the treaty of versailles led to a tragic peace in Europe due to it being unfair to Germany. The Germans had to pay million which destroyed the German economy and they had to also admit that the first World War was their fault. The German were furious and wanted vengeance which led to World War 2.

It lead to a tragic peace as the sanctions forced upon Germany were too harsh causing outrage and poverty in Germany. The treaty paved the way for the rise of Hitler as the German people turned to more radical political parties out of anger and desperation. This eventually lead to the events of World War II, The Cold War and the expansion of communism.

The treaty of versailles led to trajic peace because when the three main leaders of the victorious allies came together and decided what to do with the germans. They went over the top and crippled germany as a country which led to the german people getting angry at most of europe which led to ww2
