Objectives: Section 1: The Search for Peace What foreign policy did the United States follow after World War I? What were the major postwar peace initiatives? How did war debts and reparations affect European nations after World War I?

U.S. foreign policy after World War I Section 1: The Search for Peace U.S. foreign policy after World War I The U.S. followed a policy of partial isolationism, or withdrawal from world affairs The U.S. declined membership in the League of Nations and the World Court.

Major postwar peace initiatives Section 1: The Search for Peace Major postwar peace initiatives American groups working for peace urged the government to bring world leaders together to negotiate disarmament, or reducing the size of a country’s military The Five-Power Naval Treaty (US, Japan, Britain, Italy, and France) limited nations’ naval strength. The Nine-Power Treaty (same 5 nations in 5-power treaty + Belgium, China, Netherlands, and Portugal) guaranteed China’s territorial integrity and required its signers to uphold the Open-Door Policy. The Kellogg-Briand Pact outlawed war unless it was in self-defense. 62 countries signed the pact

Effects of war debts and reparations Section 1: The Search for Peace Effects of war debts and reparations Britain, France, and Italy were in debt to the U.S., so they demanded reparations from Germany to help them pay. Germany was forced to borrow money from Britain and to print paper money. Germany suffered hyperinflation, which led to a severe economic downturn. German bitterness grew.
