The Germans public and government had expected the treaty of Versailles to be a reflection of the 14 points, this didn’t happen because the 14 points were only what the USA wanted Germany to do and did not contain any of British or French demands. ...
The treaty of Versailles was harsh because it punished the new German government, called the weimar republic, it was not the weimar republic who had started the war but the previous government.
