  • Germany was so bitterly humiliated by the allies that her ambassador was told to sit in another room while the allies negotiate the terms of agreement, even on behalf of Germany without the Germany. All her mineral rich lands were taken from her and her scope of industrial development was limited. Britain virtually took all her naval belongings. If Germans had not felt so humiliated from this treaty, a Hitler would never have risen from its ashes. THIS treaty was the cause of WWII

  • versailles treaty and trianon treaty have destroy a nation!!!

  • Thanks you, Herr Hitler, for destroying this political and territorial atrocity named 'Treaty of Versailles'.

  • @somethingirreversib well it seems that USA and Britiain have had more sympathy to Germans than to trelaible slavic allies. Versailles... Marshall Aid...Germans won once again. Greetings from Poland we know the truth.

  • @somethingirreversib You're RIGHT ! The JELOUS west european countries didn't want Hungary to be as big as it was !

    They will pay for it ! It's COMING ! The world is changing fast, and west europe will DIE !

  • yes sir, Wilson like obama today. says one thing in campaign and then wins and does somthing different.. lol, not to deviate from this video, politicians tend to do this, only great leaders can stand up and stick to their guns, history full of bad men, but how many good leaders has there been? dont tell me FDR, and Jesus dont count.

  • Russia was stabbed in the back by the Allies and this treaty - being the only Entente/Allied country to not even sign it. Former Russian territories were not returned to Russia (unlike French or Belgian) but rather given international sovereignty. Reparations or return of POWs to Russia was not even mentioned.
