1 TREATY OF VERSAILLES Background: The fighting of World War I ended with the Armistice agreement on November 11th, 1919, however the Armistice was only a cease fire while the nations involved drafted and approved peace treaties to officially end the state of war between them. Each nation of the Central Powers (Germany, Austria-Hungary, the Ottoman Empire, and their allies/colonies) officially ended the conflict in separate treaties with the Allied Powers (the U.S.A., the United Kingdom, France and their allies/colonies). The Treaty of Versailles was the treaty that ended the state of war between Germany and the Allied Powers. While the President of the United States, Woodrow Wilson, outlined goals in his Fourteen Points to achieve lasting peace that was not overly harsh to the losing nations, the leadership of Britain and France were less optimistic about the possible success of his ideas. As such they sought to punish Germany for their part in the war (they did not start the fighting, but they were the primary enemy that needed to be defeated to win the conflict) and establish a set of rules in the treaty that would ensure that Germany would never be able to wage war again. Weakening Germany was especially important to France, who shared a border with Germany, while the British concerned themselves more with making the Germans pay reparations for the damage the war caused. The treaty was signed in the Hall of Mirrors in the French Palace of Versailles, 6 months after the Armistice agreement and at the conclusion of the Paris Peace Conference. The treaty successfully took productive land away from Germany both in the form of colonies and in continental territory which had been under some historical conflict (such as the regions as Alsace and Lorraine which has changed hands between France and Germany several times in history). This document contains excerpts of some of the key provisions of the Treaty of Versailles detailing the agreements intended to punish and weaken Germany.
