Detailed explanation-2: -Germany and the other defeated powers-Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria and Turkey-were not represented at the Paris Peace Conference.
Detailed explanation-3: -France and Britain at first tried to enforce the treaty, but over the next several years a number of modifications were made.
