Explanation:

• Germany was allowed to keep a small percentage of its newly acquired territory: False. Germany lost a significant amount of its territory, including Alsace - Lorraine which was returned to France and other regions given to neighboring countries.
• All Central Powers had to make reparations: False. The Treaty of Versailles mainly focused on Germany for reparations. Other Central Powers had separate treaties (e.g., Treaty of Saint - Germain for Austria, Treaty of Trianon for Hungary) which had different reparation clauses, but the concept of "all Central Powers" making reparations as a unified statement in the Treaty of Versailles is incorrect.
• There were size and capability limits imposed on the German Military: True. The German army was limited to 100,000 men, no conscription, and restrictions on the navy (e.g., no submarines) and no air force.
• Germany had to accept blame for starting the entire war: True. Article 231 (the War Guilt Clause) made Germany accept responsibility for "all the loss and damage" of the war.
• Germany had to pay reparations to the allied countries: True. The total amount was initially set at an astronomical figure (later revised), and Germany was to pay in installments.
• All Central Powers had to abide by the Treaty of Versailles: False. As mentioned, other Central Powers had their own treaties.
• Germany was stripped of all its overseas colonies: True. Germany's colonies in Africa (e.g., German East Africa, German Southwest Africa) and the Pacific (e.g., German New Guinea) were taken away and distributed among the Allied powers as League of Nations mandates.
