Versailles Peace Conference

The Versailles Peace Conference took place in 1919 after World War I, where leaders from the victorious Allied nations gathered to negotiate peace terms. The most significant outcome was the Treaty of Versailles, which imposed heavy reparations and territorial losses on Germany, aimed at preventing future conflict. The conference also established the League of Nations, an organization intended to promote international cooperation and peace. However, the harsh terms contributed to political and economic instability in Germany, setting the stage for future tensions and eventually World War II.
