What if Germany fights it out in 1918?

This needs to be repeated every time someone argues about how badly poor Germany was treated after WWI, with additional documentation of the devastated state France was left in by occupying/retreating German armies, plus facts on the severe reparations Germany wrested from France after the 1870 war (which didn’t provoke France into starting a war against Germany in 1914).

Why? It’s totally wrong.

Versailles was much more brutal that the Treaty of Frankfurt. France wasn’t occupied by Germany in WW1, the Germans got maybe 50 miles in. Of course the trench line was destroyed, but that was by Artillery from both sides.
