It did this in a lot of ways. Generally speaking, it took away territory and goods from Germany and it made them pay what were called reparations for the war. It reduced the size of their military, Finally, it made them admit that the war was all their fault, even though you could really argue that it was not.
The Treaty took a lot of land away from Germany. This included land in Europe as well as colonies (including the tiny island in Micronesia where I grew up).
It also reduced the size of their armed forces and told them they were only supposed to be defensive.
It made Germany pay huge sums of money to the other countries to make up for allegedly causing the war.
