Treaty of Versailles A Flawed Peace

What countries met to decide the resolution to WWI at the Paris Peace Conference?

Big Four US President = Woodrow Wilson British Prime Minister = David Lloyd George Italian Prime Minister = Vittorio Orlando French Premier = Georges Clemenceau Germany and Russia were not invited

What was Woodrow Wilson’s Goal for the Treaty of Versailles?

14 Points Wilson’s Plan for Peace 3 Main Ideas – Eliminate Causes of War Free trade, freedom of seas, disarmament, open diplomacy – National Self- Determination Borders of countries based on ethnicity and national identity Free to choose own government – League of Nations International peace- keeping organization

How did the US goals differ from France and Great Britain?

Punishing Germany France and Great Britain wanted to punish Germany War Guilt Clause – Germany must take blame for the war Pay war reparations Reduce armed forces to 100,000 Demilitarize the Rhineland – no troops along French and German border

What new countries were created after WWI?

New Nations Treaty dismantled 4 empires: – Austro-Hungarian, Russian, German, and Ottoman Empire New nations in Middle East: – Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Palestine New Nations in Europe: – Austria, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Finland, Poland, Yugoslavia

Why was the League of Nations ineffective?

Passing the Treaty in the US Irreconcilables – refused to support the Treaty in any circumstance Reservationists – were willing to support the Treaty if certain changes were made – Feared League of Nations would force US into war without Congressional approval Treaty was never ratified by 2/3 of Senate so the US did not join the League of Nations
