Article 231-German War Guilt German War Guilt Clause—the Versailles Treaty blamed the war on “the aggression of Germany and her allies.”

To punish Germany—the treaty made Germany pay reparations Reparations are war debts to other nations. Germany had to make up for the loss of property, factories, war ships, and other things destroyed in war. Total Cost—33 billion dollars German Reparations

-Poland becomes independent nation -Hungary becomes independent -Italy and Romania gain land. -Ottoman Empire only controls area of Turkey. New Nations are Created

League of Nations -Created to help settle disputes between nations. -60 nations joined -The goal was to promote international cooperation and maintain peace by settling disputes and reducing armaments

-The League’s ultimate goal was to include every independent nation. -Nations promised to not go to war instead to submit any dispute to the world court and the League. League of Nations
