The French thought the Treaty of Versailles wasn't being hard enough on the Germans. The Germans had caused the death of 2 million French and France wanted 'revenge' on Germany.
France wanted Germany to pay full reparations to France and if Germany resisted France would send in their army to force Germany to 'pay up', which they ultimately did.
France was disappointed with the Treaty of Versailles for several reasons, mostly centering around their desire for revenche against Germany. They felt that the treaty terms were not strong enough, despite wreaking devastation on the Germany economy and society. They were worried about further war against a resurgent Germany.
The French took a huge part in making up the treaty of Versailles. The leader of France at the time, was resentful of the Germans as they had humiliated France in a war years before, and hence took his revenge out on the harsh treaty of versailles. :)
France's reaction to the treaty of Versailles was that the French public felt they had been cheated by the USA and Britain.
they didn't want to negotiate with Germans, they wanted to withdraw Germans out of Rhineland by diplomatic pressure and later on by stronger pressure if needed to be.
It was a protest about the high price of bread and they demanded that the King move his residence to Paris where he would be able to personally view the plight of his people.
Woodrow Wilson's idealistic world view was pretty much not accepted by either the United States or the rest of the world. First of all, Wilson's political feuding with Henry Cabot Lodge and Congress, led to them not caring whether he looked weak before the Allied powers as a result of them failing to ratify the Treaty of Versailles. The Allied partners, considered his Fourteen Points, woefully naive, and rejected it in favor of the harsh Treaty of Versailles.
The Treaty of Versailles was, viewed from an objective point of view, manifestly unfair on Germany. However it is coloured by the demands in territory & economic demands of Prussia (Germany) following their victory over the French in the 1870-71 war. Versailles made Germany poorer, created resentment and fostered a desire for revenge. The Great Depression added to this and it might be argued affected the poorest most. The breeding ground for Nationalism was established, along with a focus for all the ills of the world, and Hitler was able to find mass support for his rabble rousing invective. The Versailles Treaty with the benefits it may have had to other countries was so disproportioate towards Germany that its effects were so penalising that, for the German population as a whole, a feeling that they had nothing to lose was an appealing option. Hitler appealed greatly to this strand of thought. Although I am not saying that Versailles created the Depression, it didn't, it did not help.
The Treaty of Versailles (1919) was the peace treaty which officially ended World War I between the Allied and Associated Powers and Germany. After six months of negotiations, which took place at the Paris Peace Conference, the treaty was signed as a follow-up to the armistice signed in November 1918 in Compi
when looking in a economical point of view it certainly was an extremely important element in shaping Germany. However we must always bear in mind that history isn't a pre determined expierement. that is to say - only in theory we can talk about cause and effect.
yes
What is a stereotypical view of France or French people?
He felt that the terms of the Treaty were unfair, a view that was shared with the majority of the German public at the time. This is what caused him to go into power in the first place- the fact that he promised to reverse the treaty of versailles by regaining the lost land and giving german speaking people more "lebensraum" (living space) by expanding to Eastern europe.

Probably the Serbs, because they did assassinate Archduke Francis Ferdinand, which gave the Austria-Hungarians a 'reason' to go to war with Serbia-which leads to Russian involvement since Russia was a major ally with Serbia.. I think the German's also blamed the French as well..this was actually a major reason that caused WW2...which is the French's Treaty of Versailles.

He spoke strongly in favour of the treaty.

The Treaty of Tordesillas revealed that Europeans believed they had the right to divide and control non-European lands and people without their consent. It reflected the attitude of superiority and entitlement that Europeans held towards other regions of the world during the Age of Exploration.
Wilson was able to salvage the concept of a League of Nations by securing its inclusion in the Treaty of Versailles. In Wilson's view, his key victory in negotiation was the establishment of the League of Nations, as he saw it as a mechanism to prevent future conflicts through collective security and diplomacy.
