What was Germany not allowed to have after the Treaty of Versailles?

There were many things that Germany was forbidden from having. Here's a quick list:
- a General Staff (that is, a council of high-ranking military officers who devise strategies for their military).
- submarines
- tanks or armored cars
- more than 100,000 soldiers in the Army
- any military forces in the Rhineland (a region around the Rhine River; the region also borders France, and happens to make for a good place to start an invasion thereof)
- warplanes
- chemical weapons
There also were other restrictions. For example, the treaty contains extensive language describing exactly how the new German military would be, with exactly what kinds of units and what they can be armed with. Additionally, gun control measures were put in place to prevent German civilians from stockpiling weapons.
And of course, the Germans almost immediately started ignoring it. Right from the start, the Germans totally ignored #1, above, by simply renaming their General Staff as the "Truppenamt" ("Troop Office")- seriously, that's what they did! The restrictions on civilian gun ownership were also largely not enforced, and the Germans began inventing new versions of weapons to get around the bans. Once the Nazis came to power in 1933-34, they began more vigorously (and more flagrantly) violating the provisions of the treaty.
