    The document is a newspaper article from a German newspaper in 1919 reacting to the signing of the Treaty of Versailles. It calls the treaty disgraceful and says the German people will work tirelessly to regain their rightful place among nations. It also promises vengeance for the terms imposed by the treaty. The source provides value as evidence of negative German attitudes towards the treaty at the time. However, it also has limitations as a nationalist newspaper may not represent all views and may be biased in its coverage.
