2.The armed forces of Germany must not include any militert or naval air forces. One of the most important rule of the Treaty Of Versailles was that The Allied and Associated Goverments affirm and Germany accepts the responsibility of Germany and her Allies for causeing all the loss and damage which the Allied and associated Goverments and their nationals have been subjected as a consequence of the war in posed upon them by the aggression of Germany and her allies.

The Germans lost 10% of their land and they overseas colonies were taken away which means that they no longer have access to the Spice Island. They lost 12.5% of their population, Germany had no money to power to recorver from all this. Germany was under control by the other European countries and had rules that germany cant break.
