where was the Treaty of Versailles signed

The Treaty of Versailles was the peace settlement signed after World War One had ended in 1918 and in the shadow of the Russian Revolution and other events in Russia. The treaty was signed at the vast Versailles Palace near Paris - hence its title - between Germany and the Allies. The three most important politicians there were David Lloyd George, Georges Clemenceau and Woodrow Wilson. The Versailles Palace was considered the most appropriate venue simply because of its size - many hundreds of people were involved in the process and the final signing ceremony in the Hall of Mirrors could accommodate hundreds of dignitaries. Many wanted Germany, now led by Friedrich Ebert, smashed - others, like Lloyd George, were privately more cautious.

What is the impact of versailies treaty on European politics in 1919-1939?

The Versailles treaty had a major impact on politics in Germany, as Hitler played on it to gain popularity amongst the German people. Thus, it helped to end the Weimar Republic government and brought the Nazis to power. Without it, Hitler would not have been able to play on how 'harsh' Germany was treated after the first world war. By ignoring the treaty, Hitlers actions eventually helped lead to the second world war.
