Hmmm, Good points S.K, with a little more too add to this Treaty.!
Germany was prohibited from manufacturing heavy armaments,
military service was also abolished, and Germany\'s armed forces
were to be limited in equipment and manpower. During this time
Germany\'s waterways were to be internationalized, and severe
reparation were imposed. The loss of German territory after WWI,
manpower and control of her waterways restricted Germany\'s ability
to pay the reparations, and means were found of circumventing the
disarmament clause. The high bitterness and frustration caused by
the imposition of the Treaty did helped the ultimate rise to power for
Hitler in 1933. However, Hitler did waited a little too long before tearing
the U-boat restriction on Germany\'s naval arm at the time.
