Germany was humiliated and treated like a colony of France. The French got the Rhine valley and all of its resources and millions in payments each year. Germany was not allowed to have a real military. There were quotas for how many canons, guns, airplanes, etc, they could build. It actually forced the Germans to develop better weapons. The Germans destroyed all their old, obsolete weapons to comply with the treaty and later rearmed with all new, superior weapons. Germany also lost much of Prussia to Poland so Poland could have a sea port. Many military officers were Prussians. French behavior in the Rhine valley was atrocious.
