Germany was forced to accept full responsibility for causing the war, leading to humiliation and resentment among the German population. Additionally, Germany was required to pay hefty reparations, which further weakened its economy and led to widespread suffering among its people. The territorial losses imposed by the Treaty also stripped Germany of valuable resources and land, further deepening the sense of humiliation and betrayal.
