The correct answer is B) World War I.
The Treaty of Versailles was signed on June 28, 1919, and formally ended World War I (1914-1918). The treaty was negotiated at the Paris Peace Conference and primarily involved the Allied Powers (including the United States, Great Britain, France, and Italy) and Germany.
Key details about the Treaty of Versailles: - Signed at the Palace of Versailles in France - Imposed harsh penalties on Germany, including: 1. Significant territorial losses 2. Massive war reparations 3. Restrictions on military size and capabilities - Officially held Germany responsible for starting World War I - Created the League of Nations
The treaty's punitive terms are often cited by historians as a contributing factor to the economic and political conditions that ultimately helped lead to the rise of Nazi Germany and, eventually, World War II.
The other options are incorrect: - Thirty Years' War ended with the Peace of Westphalia in 1648 - Napoleonic Wars concluded with the Congress of Vienna in 1815 - World War II ended with the Paris Peace Treaties in 1947
