Answer 1

The three statements that support the thesis statement are:

A) The Treaty of Versailles forced Germany to repair all the damages caused by the war, not only to the Allied governments but also to the civilians. These reparations should be done in goods as well as in money. As a consequence, Germany was obliged to hand over most of its resources and wealth.

D) Germany had to deliver many territories such as Alsace and Lorraine, Eupen and the Polish Prussia, amog others, to the Allies. This meant the loss of approximately six million people in population for this country, and also the loss of regions which were of fundamental economic importance.

E) The War Guilt Clause or Article 231 made Germany accept the responsability for all damages caused by the war to the Allies and the population of such countries. This was seen as a national humilliation for the Germans who do not wanted to take full responsibility for the damages.
