Political Cartoon

This cartoonist is trying to show the Treaty of Versaille and how Germany was being  forced to take what the "big four" told them to whether they liked it or not. It showed that Germany didn't really think it was fair or that they were guilty. The pill being fed to them says "peace terms" on it and this shows that all the other countries agreed that Germany was at fault for the whole war and they needed to pay the debt caused by it. The needed to suck it up.

The cartoon doesn't point out any major stereo-types of the time but it does show an exaggeration of the fist grabbing hold on Germany and forcing them to except these terms.

I personally like this comic because it gives people a sense of how other countries felt about Germany at this time. It also shows that World War I was far from wanted by the world and it allows one to become aware of the state of mind before and after the war.
