Treaty of Versailles
The Treaty of Versailles has been much criticised. Was it a brave attempt to remodel Europe after the First World War or was it a short-sighted and vengeful document designed to punish Germany. Take a look at the History Learning site for some good background and information on the treaty.
The old BBC History video "Make Germany Pay" gives a neat summary of the terms of the treaty.
Here is a more opinionated judgement on the peace treaties which is also worth examining.
