                                      1. Coal from the Saar and Upper Silesia was a vital economic loss.

                                            1. The 'war guilt' clause
                                              1. Germany had to admit full responsibility for starting the war.
                                                1. Because of this clause, Germany was made to pay the reparations
                                                  1. The amount was far too much for Germany to pay
                                                    1. Many Germans felt they were being punished for the mistakes of the government
                                                    2. The treaty kept Germany weak, yet strong enough to prevent the spread of communism, which Lloyd George considered more of a priority
