The Treaty of Versailles

The Treaty of Versailles I think is not fair because I find the treaty a bit to harsh. I think the treaty is to harsh because 100,000 men small, for one big nation. With 100,000 men the nation would not have as much self-defence to anything that would happen to them personally would be a bad. Also when Germany needs to give land to the allied forces is also harsh even for what they caused but there are parts where I think is fair. One example that I think is fair in the treaty of Versailles would be Germany respecting the independence of the countries such as Austria, Czechoslovakia and Poland, which is completely fair

Overall I think the Treaty is fair because although they have a smaller army to small to defend themselves they still need to free the countries and give it their independence
