After World War I, several treaties were signed to establish peace and redraw the boundaries of Europe and other regions. Here are the five major treaties:

Treaty of Versailles (1919) – Signed with Germany, this was the most famous of the treaties. It imposed heavy reparations, territorial losses, military restrictions, and accepted German responsibility for the war (the "war guilt clause").

Treaty of Saint-Germain (1919) – Signed with Austria, this treaty dissolved the Austro-Hungarian Empire and recognized the independence of various nations like Czechoslovakia, Poland, and Yugoslavia. It also imposed territorial losses on Austria.

Treaty of Neuilly (1919) – Signed with Bulgaria, it required Bulgaria to cede territories to Greece, Romania, and the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes (Yugoslavia), and pay reparations.

Treaty of Trianon (1920) – Signed with Hungary, this treaty significantly reduced Hungarian territory and population, with lands going to Romania, Czechoslovakia, and Yugoslavia.

Treaty of Sèvres (1920) – Signed with the Ottoman Empire, it partitioned much of the empire's territory, leading to the creation of new nations like Iraq and Syria under the League of Nations mandates. This treaty was later renegotiated as the Treaty of Lausanne in 1923, after the Turkish War of Independence.

These treaties reshaped Europe and parts of the Middle East, but also planted the seeds for future conflicts.
