Was the treaty of Versailles fair?Why? [refer to textbk for aims,terms and impact]

I feel that the treaty of Versailles is unfair.The reason is because the punishmentis too harsh for the German.Some of the punishment were: German was being made to accept the full blame of the war and the Germany had to pay repairations to the Allied powers. The Germans was also needed to pay a huge sum of money,resulting in Germany becoming poor.For military,the Germans have their army restricting to 100 000 men and conscription was not allowed and their navy was also restricted to 15 000 men with ONLY 6 battleships and some smaller ships,but were not allow to have submarines,tanks or planes. Territorial was also in the treaty of Versailles where Germany had to return some lands.The aim of this treaty was actually to reduce the size of Germany,making them poor by making them to compensate the war. Thus,i do not think that the treaty of versailles is not fair.
