Answer:
The Treaty of Versailles was signed in 1919 after the First World War and its two main goals were to punish Germany for starting the war and to create the League of Nations to prevent future wars. The treaty imposed harsh terms on Germany, such as territorial losses, reparations, disarmament, and admission of guilt. The treaty also established new national boundaries based on ethnic lines and awarded mandates to the Allied powers over former German and Ottoman colonies.
