The problem with the Treaty of Versailles (ToV) was that it was neither soft enough nor hard enough
France wanted to make it harsher but the UK was afraid that France would dominate the continent. The result was a compromise which wasn’t soft enough to create a lasting peace nor harsh enough to prevent WW2.
Since Germany lost the largest war in history it can’t expect the victors be very lenient. So the best course would be to split Germany back into ca. pre-1865 borders. Meaning that:
Firstly there would be no unified Germany. Meaning that countries like Bavaria, Saxony etc. would be independent once again. Prussia united Germany by military force and by WW1 the former identities were still strong. So let’s use this pro-independence and anti-Prussian feelings. This would also mean that unification of Germany is forbidden.
Secondly Prussia would lose some territory to France (Alsace and Lorraine), Denmark (Schleswig) and Poland (parts of Silesia and East Prussia like in our timeline).
Thirdly the various dynasties could continue to rule the German states. Not only it would prevent the old leadership from escaping responsibility but it would also provide stability to the countries and prevent the rise of radicalism.
Fourthly there would be no harsh reparations. There would be some but not brutal enough so that the once again independant German kingdoms wouldn’t be crippled.
And finally demilitarization. Prussia and other German states would demilitarize just like in OTL which would include the limitations on all armed forces and demilitarization of Rhineland.
