I frequently hear that the Versailles treaty was pretty harsh against Germany in particular and I'm trying to put it into context. How bad was it compared to others treaties before it?
One comparison I'm particularly interested in would be the treaty of Paris, 1814 ending the napoleonic wars but I'll take anything you got.
