The Treaty of Versailles was?

1: a peace settlement that consisted of five separate treaties with the defeated nations.

2: Forced upon Austria, and gave some of it's land to the new state of Poland.

3:The treaty signed with Germany that many Germans felt was a harsh peace.

4:A defensive alliance between Great Britain, France, and the United States.

I think the correct answer is 3. Please help...thank you.

Yes, 3.

Thank you so much!! Now, I can finally be finished. I read my book and it was worded so many different ways, I was not sure. Thank you, thank you!!!!

You are very welcome, Marylyn.

You are correct, the Treaty of Versailles is indeed option 3: a treaty signed with Germany that many Germans felt was a harsh peace. The Treaty of Versailles was one of the peace treaties that ended World War I and was signed on June 28, 1919, in the Palace of Versailles in France.

To arrive at this answer, you could eliminate options 1 and 4 based on their descriptions. Option 1 refers to multiple treaties with defeated nations, not just Germany. Option 4 refers to a defensive alliance, which is not accurate for the Treaty of Versailles.

Regarding option 2, it is partially correct, but not the best answer for the Treaty of Versailles. While the treaty did involve territorial changes in Austria, it did not specifically create a new state of Poland. That refers more to the Treaty of Saint-Germain-en-Laye, which was a separate treaty signed with Austria. Therefore, option 3 remains the most accurate choice.
