The treaty that ended World War I is known as the Treaty of Versailles, signed on June 28, 1919. Negotiated at the Paris Peace Conference, it imposed significant territorial, military, and economic restrictions on Germany, which many historians believe sowed the seeds for future conflicts, including World War II. The treaty also established the League of Nations, aimed at maintaining peace but ultimately failed to prevent further wars. The terms of the treaty were controversial, leading to deep resentment in Germany, which felt humiliated and unfairly treated by the Allied powers.
