Yes, the main figures in the Nazi government were tried and hanged at Nuremberg. The people who held even some minor offices under the Nazis were banned from politics. And if one examines photographs of German cities after the war, their cities were in utter ruins with 90% of the housing stock in Berlin destroyed. The bombing of civilian areas can be considered a punishment in itself.

Compare and contrast World War I and World War 2 and Vietnam war?

World War 1 was a war that was caused by a web of alliances, Austria-Hungary had an alliance with Germany, Germany hated France who refused to enter any war without Britain. Italy wanted to be a world power so it allied with Germany and Austria-Hungary. Russia was mad at Austria-Hungary for declaring war on Serbia, and the ottoman empire was afraid of Russia so it allied with Germany and Austria-Hungary. When Austria Hungary declared war on Serbia Russia Declared war on Austria-Hungary, When Russia mobilized Germany declared war on Russia, France allied with Russia had to declare war, when Germany marched through Blegium-neutral-Britain declared war on Germany. With the tensions that had been going on in Europe for years, the war was inevitable.-war of alliances World War 2 was caused by World War 1-if Germany hadn't been hurt so bad by the Treaty of Versailles then Hitler would never have come to power and Germany would not have expanded.-imperialism war The Vietnam Wars were caused by the spread of communism and economic issues that had been going around the world at the time. It was a war between the north-communist and the south-run by a non-communist dictator, the north tried combine with the south and become one communist government.

What did Germany West and East have to pay after World War 2 and what is taken from Germany as punishment after World War 2 and who and how much are they still paying today?

Germany had to pay some reparations after World War 2, but not on anything like the scale of those set after World War 1. As a result of the Cold War (1948 onwards), the Western Zones ceased making any reparations to the Soviet Union, which was supposed to be the main beneficiary. Shortly afterwards Britain and France ceased dismantling factories. In effect, reparations from the Western Zones ceased around 1950. The Soviet Zone had to continue to pay reparations to the Soviet Union for a further 15 years or so. Note that on the contrary, the U.S. gave very substantial financial aid to West Germany. As for the more general question of 'punishment', Germany's reputation was in tatters. Also about 12 millions Germans were expelled from Eastern Europe and forcibly resettled.
