In this video, we'll explain the Treaty of Versailles and how World War 1 finally came to an end, and how WW2 would start with the world’s most hated Treaty, the treaty of Versailles, on 28 June 1919. What would the economic consequences of the peace be? The leaders of 32 states, representing 75% of the world's population attended the Peace Conference. However, the negotiations would be dominated by “The Big 4” of Allied Powers: Thomas Woodrow Wilson, representing the United States, David Lloyd George representing the United Kingdom, Georges Clemenceau representing France, and to a small extent, Vittorio Orlando representing Italy. The Big 4 had conflicting objectives and they had various disagreements on how harsh Germany should be punished, reflecting the damage each country had to face in the war. They had to negotiate with each other until there was a compromise, which was not going to be easy. The European Allies imposed harsh peace terms on Germany, forcing the nation to surrender around 10 percent of its territory and all of its overseas possessions. It was also called for the demilitarization and occupation of the Rhineland, limited Germany’s army and navy, forbade it to maintain an air force, and required it to conduct war crimes trials against Kaiser Wilhelm II and other leaders for their aggression. Germany was forced to accept full responsibility for starting World War I and pay enormous reparations for Allied war losses. In the years following the Treaty of Versailles, many ordinary Germans believed they had been betrayed by the “November Criminals. Germans were furious about the treaty, seeing it as a diktat, or dictated peace; they bitterly resented the sole blame of war being placed at their feet. This Anger over the betrayal helped fuel the rise of populism and nationalism in the 1920s and 1930s, they promised to reverse the Humiliation and Versailles Treaty. - Chapters: - Treaty Of Versailles: Introduction: 00:00 - Woodrow Wilson 14 Points: 00:35 - League of Nations: 00:52 - Germany signed Armistice Agreement: 01:06 - Paris Peace Conference 1919: 01:30 - The Big 4: 01:46 - Countries excluded from Paris Peace Conference: 02:03 - The Big 4: Treaty of Versailles: 02:21 - Georges Clemenceau: 02:35 - Lloyd George: 02:56 - Vittorio Orlando: 03:22 - Woodrow Wilson: 03:30 - Results of Peace Conference: 03:55 - Hall of Mirrors in the Palace of Versailles: 04:11 - Reaction of Germany on The Treaty of Versailles: 04:22 - Key provisions of the treaty of Versailles: 05:19 - Treaty of Versailles: Territorial Provisions: 05:29 - Treaty of Versailles: Military Provisions: 06:28 - Treaty of Versailles: Financial and Economical Provisions: 07:24 - November Criminals: 08:40 - The rise of Hitler 1933: 08:58 - World War 2 1939: 09:22 - Welcome to History Simplified, the most simple animated history channel on YouTube.
