Simulation

Loyd George- Great Britain Giorgio Sonnio- Italy Woodrow Wilson- USA Georges Clemenceau- France

Scenario 11th November 1918, 1100hrs - the war to end all wars have ended! 7,849,000 soldiers lay dead in the fields of Europe - a generation wipe out by bomb, bullet and gas. The Allied powers meet to decide on the key points surrounding the First World War. They were to decide who caused the war, who is to pay and what is to become of Germany, Austria and indeed Europe as a whole. This simulation is to see what your responses would have been if you had been at the treaty.

1. There is to be no shouting or raised voices of any kind - a diplomat does not raise their voice to answer a question or attack an opinion. 2. Remain seated. 3. No conferring with other tables as to their responses and answers. 4. If you need to speak to the Teacher then raise your hand - do not call out. 5. You must remain in your character during the simulation - only follow what your character would have done – not what you think you should do. 6. Be careful to make sure everyone has his or her say and no one is left out.
