Because it was incredibly harsh on them.

It crippled their country; they had to pay £6.6 billion in reparations.

It humiliated them and made them look weak.

Their army was restricted to 100,000 men and their airforce was abolished.

They had to sign a war guilt clause, which meant they had to take full responsibility for starting World War One - unfair, much... Was it a German who shot Archduke Franz Ferdinand?

They had lost a huge amount of territory, for example Alsace-Lorraine, Eupen and Malmedy and the Rhineland was demilitarized.

The Germans called the Treaty a 'Diktat', because of its harshness.
