The Treaty of Versailles was not a good treaty for the future.

The "war guilt" clause forced Germany to accept responsibility for the war and harshly punished the country. They were forced to reduced their military and pay huge sums of money in reparations. This will eventually cause Germany to retaliate under the leadership of Hitler.
