The Versailles Treaty, signed on June 28, 1919, in the hall of mirrors at Palace of Versailes as the peace settlement between Germany and the Allied Powers that officially ended World War One. The Treaty of Versailles was the peace treaty which officially ended World War I. It was signed by foreign German minister Hermann Müller. The armistice to end the fighting of WWI had been signed on 11 November 1918, but the Treaty of Versailles was the result of six months of negotiations at the Paris Peace Conference to conclude the terms of the peace treaty. The Treaty required that Germany accept sole responsibility for causing the war and that it make reparations to certain members of the Allied forces. Further conditions imposed by the Treaty included Germany losing a certain amount of its own territory to a number of surrounding countries and being stripped of all its overseas colonies. Germany was also required to substantially reduce its military to limit its ability to make war again.
