The Treaty of Versailles Signed June 28, 1918

Chateau at Commecourt (France) How does seeing this image make YOU (as a Canadian of the 21st century) feel? How would your reaction to the picture be different if you were a Frenchman/woman living in 1919?

Aftermath of the Battle at Somme, France (nearly 60 000 British soldiers died in 1 day) How does seeing this image make YOU (as a Canadian of the 21st century) feel? How would your reaction to the picture be different if you were a Englishman/woman living in 1919?

It’s Payback time! If you were a Canadian/ English/French or American citizen in 1919, would you want some kind of payback? Think about the various costs of the war: death, injuries, disease, money, destruction of countryside and land What would you demand as compensation from the Germans?

The Great War left… More than 16 million dead! 21 million injured. Left Europe in shambles. “The Lost Generation”

Versailles? Signed June 28, 1918 27 Nations attended, but 3 were most important

The Big Four Lloyd George Britain George Clemanceau France Woodrow Wilson USA Vittorio Orlando Italy

The Big Four at Versailles

What did France Want? Revenge Security (so that Germany could never invade again) Reparations (for damage done by German invasion of Northern France) George Clemenceau

What did Britain Want? English public = very anti-German Lloyd George: Britain needs Germany to recover (for trade) Scared of the “disease from the East” Lloyd George

What did America Want? Did not have the support of the American public. Set up League of Nations Fulfillment of Fourteen Points Punish Germany but not to completely destroy her. Woodrow Wilson
