Use this sentence starter: I believe the treaty was fair/unfair because...

I believe the Treaty of Versailles was unfair because it placed the majority of the blame for World War I on Germany, leading to harsh reparations that crippled its economy and fueled resentment. Additionally, the treaty disregarded the desires of many German citizens and failed to address the root causes of the war, ultimately setting the stage for further conflict. On the other hand, some may argue that the treaty was fair in holding Germany accountable for its actions and preventing it from starting another war.
