Which treaty ended the First World War between Germany and the Allied Powers in 1919?

The Treaty of Versailles ended the First World War between Germany and the Allied Powers in 1919.

The treaty was signed on 28 June 1919 in the Hall of Mirrors at the Palace of Versailles, exactly five years after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. It required Germany to accept responsibility for damage caused by the war, surrender territory, reduce its armed forces, and pay reparations under arrangements later revised.

The treaty created the League of Nations framework and redrew parts of Europe and the Middle East, though separate agreements handled the other Central Powers. Germany’s delegation objected strongly and signed under pressure. The treaty became a major source of political resentment in Germany, but historians generally treat the causes of the Second World War as broader than the treaty alone. The armistice had already stopped fighting on 11 November 1918.
