The Treaty of Versailles was a peace treaty that officially ended World War I. It was signed on June 28, 1919, exactly 5 years after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, one of the events that triggered the start of the war. Although the armistice signed on November 11, 1918 put an end to the actual fighting, it took six months of negotiations at the Paris Peace Conference to conclude a peace treaty. Of the many provisions in the treaty, one of the most important and controversial provisions required Germany and its allies to accept full responsibility for causing the war and, under the terms of articles 231-248, disarm, make substantial territorial concessions and pay reparations to certain countries that had formed the Entente powers.

Il annonce la création d’une Société des Nations et détermine les sanctions prises à l'encontre de l'Allemagne. Celle-ci, qui n’ était pas représentée au cours de la conférence, se vit privée de ses colonies et d’une partie de ses droits militaires, amputée de certains territoires et astreinte à de lourdes réparations économiques.
