One key idea included in the Treaty of Versailles to punish the Central Powers was the imposition of heavy reparations, particularly on Germany. The treaty required Germany to accept full responsibility for the war, outlined in Article 231, also known as the "War Guilt Clause." Additionally, significant territorial losses and military restrictions were imposed, aiming to weaken Germany and prevent future aggression. These measures reflected the Allies' intent to hold the Central Powers accountable for the devastation caused during World War I.
