The Treaty of Versailles June 28, 1919

The Paris Peace Conference ► Armistice (end of fighting) happened on November 11, 1918 ► War ended formally with the Paris Peace Conference in 1919, held at the Palace of Versailles

The Paris Peace Conference ► Borden insisted that Canada play a role in the Peace Conference, even though Britain and the US opposed it ► Borden won and Canada sent 4 delegates to Paris

Terms and Conditions of the Treaty ► Territory  The Rhineland (area between France and Germany) was demilitarized  France took over Alsace and Lorraine (German provinces)

Terms and Conditions of the Treaty  Germany divided up and Czechoslovakia and Poland took over large parts of German territory  Germany was forced to recognize Czechoslovakia, Poland and Austria as independent countries

Terms and Conditions of the Treaty

► War Guilt Clause  Germany was forced to accept total and sole responsibility for World War One

Terms and Conditions of the Treaty: ► Reparations  Germany would have to pay damages totaling about $33 billion  Justified because Germany territory had not been destroyed by the war but large areas of France and Belgium had been devastated

Terms and Conditions of the Treaty: ► League of Nations  Organization established to promote international cooperation and peace  Suggested by US President Woodrow Wilson

The End of the War ► Germany agreed to such a harsh treaty only because Allies threatened to resume fighting ► Many people realized that the treaty was too harsh and would not bring lasting peace ► Prime Minister Borden was included in those who signed the Treaty of Versailles on June 28, 1919 ► This was a true indication of increasing Canadian independence on the international stage
