That Germany was being Punished for something it was not responsible for. The Treaty of Versailles blamed Germany, and Germany alone for the outbreak of WWI, when this was not the case. Yes Germany wanted war, but it began with an assassination in Austri and, many different nations joined the war for different reasons. Therefore the war guilt clause of the treaty, was arguably the most difficult for the German people to swallow. The War guilt clause hand in hand with huge reparations, consequently had an immense impact on the coming years. It is believed to be one of the direct causes for the Kapp Putch therefore the rise of nationalism and ultimately the coming of Adolf hitler to power in 1933.
