2
- a treaty signed in 1919 which brought a formal end to the First World War凡尔赛和约(1919年签订, 正式结束第一次世界大战)。
The treaty redivided the territory of the defeated Central Powers, restricted Germany's armed forces, and established the League of Nations. It left Germany smarting under what it considered a vindictive settlement while not sufficiently restricting its ability eventually to rearm and seek forcible redress.
