To be fair, these 21 points are the conclusions of modern scholars (See first post in thread), and a slight mix of the treaty itself mixed with its implementation. But one will find many articles in almost the same format in the actual treaty, paraphrased and shortened by me.
These points are the actual points that caused so much 'humiliation' and 'eternal slavery'. For example, 20.000 was indeed the total number of Germans affected by colonial transfers. Germany did end up receiving 150% in loans of what it paid in reparations. Etcetera.
I have replaced 'reparations' - that maligned term - with 'reconstruction costs'. Because that was what they were, what they were intended to be. Which s now more clear. The 'League of Nations', instituted by the Versailles Treaty, I gave the name of 'United Nations' - because that name has not received the same bad press, but left the actual fact that Germany was already allowed entry in 1926 intact.
And so on and so forth.
