summarize

The most legally binding peace agreement that put an end to the hostility between Allied powers and Germany was the Treaty of Versailles. The treaty was signed on June 28th, 1919. Five years elapsed since the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, which started the war. The League of Nations secretariat registered the pact on October 21, 1919, even though the real fighting concluded on November 11, 1918. Germany was made to shoulder responsibility for World War I under the “war guilt” of the treaty. A significant contributing reason to the outbreak of World War II was the pact.
