The War Guilt Clause
Notes
- Germans forced to admit responsibility for starting the war
- had to accept all terms of treaty that were given to them
Summary
The War guilt clause as designed to put Germany in a very bad spot. It forced them to take full responsibility for the war, as well as make them do whatever the treaty said they had to do.
