Answer: Many historians believe that the peace conference contributed to the strengthening of militaristic nationalism in Germany.

Step-by-step explanation:

The end of the First World War brought extremely unfavourable conditions for Germany, which was defeated in the war. Difficult conditions of peace greatly influenced the strengthening of militant nationalism in Germany. Germany had to pay large war damages, lost all colonies and a huge part of the territory in Europe. The United States, led by President Wodvard Wilson, advocated a somewhat more lenient stance toward Germany. Still, France and Britain did not seek to be so lenient with Germany and blamed the Germans for the war's sole culprits and perpetrators. In such circumstances, years after the peace conference in Germany, the National Socialist Party, led by Adolf Hitler, strengthened. The Germans considered themselves betrayed and deceived. Thus German militant nationalism grew to its zenith.
