Detailed Solution

At the end of the First World War, Germany surrendered to the Allies, which included the UK, France, USSR, and the USA. Germany had the support of Italy and Japan. At Versailles, Germany entered a peace treaty with the Allies. It was a harsh and humiliating treaty. Germany lost its overseas territory. All the Allies demilitarised Germany to weaken its strength and power. The War Guilt clause made Germany responsible for the war. Germany was made to compensate for the damages that occurred to the Allied nations.
Thus, the Assertion is true, but the Reason is false.
