Geschichte in Standpunkten
20. Jahrhundert: 1914-1945 | Versailler Vertrag
Experts Evaluate the Treaty of Versailles
In retrospect, the course of history often seems inevitable. For the contemporaries at the time, however, there were usually different paths open and some decisions could have turned out quite differently and steered history in a different direction. Our experts comment on four questions: Were people at all ready for a real peace in 1918? What chance did the League of Nations have to bring about more mutual understanding? How did people’s attitude towards life change after 1918? What consequences did the collapse of the empires have – then and still today?
