         <description><![CDATA[<p>It can be infered that the peace treaty of Versailles was too much and too unreasonable for the Germany to accept. As seen from the source A, the peace term pill was way bigger than what Germany could eat and swallow, it was also worth millions which justifies the fact that the peace terms was worth a lot for Germany. This shows that to Germany the peace terms were too harsh since they are unable to pay the huge fees and they would be in a lot of economic trouble if they were to accept the peace terms. France needed lots of money to rebuild what was destoyed during the war, but so did Germany. Germany had worse war injuries than France and needed far more money to rebuild on top of the money they needed to give for the peace form. </p><p><br/></p><p>The message is that Germany was forced too accept the treaty of Versailles. As seen from source A, even though they were not the only ones that caused damage, they were blamed on the entire war and were not allowed to decline the treated of Versailles. This shows that Germany had lots of debts that are dragging them back from catching up with the other countries on their economic growth.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>It can be inferred from this political cartoon that Germany was not able to accept the terms and conditions of the Treaty of Versailles because the treaty was very harsh. As seen from the political cartoon, the Big Four were carrying a spoon with a huge pill on it and forcing it into Germany's mouth even though it was'nt able to fit with another box of pills underneath the Big Four labelled ' Big Four pills worth millions a box' This shows that Germany was not able to afforc the reparations due to their economy being affected by the war.</p><p>------------------------------------------</p><p>The message of this political cartoon is that Germany is forced to accept the conditions of the Treaty of Versailles. As seen from the political cartoon, there was a huge hand with the five fingers labelled British Empire, France, America, Italy and Japan representing the Entente that was gripping Germany tightly while Germany struggles. The Big Four was also saying ' You got to swallow it whether you like it or not!' This shows that Germany was forced to accept the conditions of the treaty because during the Treaty of Versailles Germany was not invited and the two German officials were forced to sign the treaty even though they were unable to accept the terms and unable to afford the compensations. </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>It can be inferred that Germany does not have the condition to accept the Treaty of Versailles because the treaty was harsh for Germany. Germany is not able to swallow the peace terms as Germany cannot withstand much punishments.  Germany does not have the economy to pay the punishments. The punishment involved taking 13% of Germanys land and paying 6600 million euros, Military army deducted to only 100000 soldiers and demilitarised zones. At Germany's state  is not able to pay for the punishments.</p><p><br/></p><p>The message of this political cartoon is that Germany was forced to accept the peace terms.  Germany had no rights to say anything about the peace terms and was forced to swallow the peace terms and take the punishments. As seen from source A, there is a box of pills from the big fours and it is worth millions,  while the big fours Is forcing Germany to swallow the big four pills and after Germany swallow the big four pills Germany has to pay millions of Euros. Germany was still forced to sign the term even though Germany were unable to afford the punishments.</p><p><br/></p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>IEE + MEE</p><p><br/></p><p>The Source A infers that Germany is being forced to accept harsh peace terms after WW1. For instance, Germany is presented as a very old man and he is being force-fed a large pill labeled "Peace Terms" by the Big Four. This obviously shows Germany has no option but to swallow the difficult treaty despite how dangerous the negative impact is.</p><p><br/></p><p>The message of Source A is that the Treaty of Versailles was a forced settlement imposed on Germany. The huge pill with the words "You’ve got to swallow it whether you like it or not" significantly emphasizes that it was compulsive. It highlights Germany’s harsh stance toward the unfair and critical conditions. </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>It can be inferred that the Big 4 was forcing Germany to accept the Treaty of Versailles. As seen from source A, the British Empire, France, America, and Italy are forcing Germany to take the pill, which is the Treaty of Versailles. This shows that Germany has no choice but to accept the Treaty of Versailles.</p><p><br/></p><p>The message is that Germany at that period will encounter great damage if they accept the Treaty of Versailles. As seen from source A, the pill, which is the Treaty of Versailles, is worth millions a boa, which means that it is very expensive, and the mouth of the person representing Germany is smaller than the pill. This shows that Germany is weak at that period and does not have the power to accept the Treaty of Versailles.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>I can infer from the picture that Germany was forced to sign the Treaty of Versailles. </p><p><br></p><p>As seen from the source, Germany, represented by the lady being held down by a big hand, is being forcely fed by the big four, with no say in it. The big four, containing mainly the Britain, France, Italy and Japan, were being very harsh and force feeding Germany the terms and making Germany the full bearer of consequences even though there were many other countries who were also responsible for the war. The treaty was considered very harsh as they demanded that Germany give up their some of their land for example Alsace-Lorraine which was given back to France. Germany also lost all its overseas colonies and was not allowed to be part of any agreements and had their military cut-down, they were restricted to only 100,000 soldiers and all their wartime weapons had to be destroyed, their battleships were cut down and limited to only 6 battleships. There was also no Germans allowed at Rhineland.</p><p><br></p><p>To conclude, the Treaty was extremely harsh for the Germans and were asking for too much.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>It can be inferred from the political cartoon that after world war 1, Germany was forced to follow the unfair and harsh peace terms given by the Big 4– The British Empire, France, America and Italy— also known as the Treaty of Versailles. As seen from source A, a huge pill is held on a spoon by political figures standing on a box in which is stated that each pill is worth millions. The pill is being force-fed to a man, representing Germany, being restrained by a huge fist, with the names of Big 4 on each finger. This shows that Germany had to unwillingly follow along with the overwhelming harshness of the Treaty of Versailles. </p><p>The message conveys the unfair treatment Germany faced after the war. As seen from source A, the figures force-feeding Germany do not give Germany a chance to reject the pill, even when Germany was struggling against the hold. This shows that during the Treaty of Versailles, Germany could not negotiate, thus having to go through the punishment that was too harsh for Germany to handle unwillingly.  </p><p><br/></p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Source A: A bitter pill to swallow</p><p>It can be inferred from the picture that the British Empire, France, America, Italy and Japan were forcing Germany to swallow a pill too big labelled 'peace terms'. As seen from source A, the big 4's representatives are force feeding Germany the pill through a giant spoon too big for them to lift alone. While doing so, they tell Germany that they have got to swallow it whether they like it or not. This shows that not only is the pill too big for a developed country like Germany but it also takes the 4 big countries to carry it and they are making Germany take it without letting them have a say in their future.</p><p><br></p><p>The message of this political cartoon is that Germany's opinions were not taken into consideration when the big 4 were deciding on the terms of the peace treaty. As seen from the source, a giant hand labelled the British Empire, France, America, Italy and France are holding Germany against her will in a balled up fist. This shows the injustice in post world war, where majority of the countries were teaming up against Germany due to her actions during the battle.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>It can be inferred from source A that the Big 4: Britain, Italy, France and USA forced Germany to accept the overly harsh terms  of the Treaty of Versailles, where she had no say in the terms. As seen from source A, the Big 4 strangled Germany, going against her own will and being forced to accept the consequences. This shows that Germany had not been willing to accept those terms but she had no authority on deciding her fate. </p><p><br/></p><p>The message is, despite the fact that Germany was not acting alone in WW1, she is forced to shoulder all the blame and take full responsibility for all "loss and damage" suffered by the Allies during the war. As seen from source A, the Big 4 told Germany that they have no choice, and have to accept the terms of the treaty of Versailles whether they like it or not. However, the pill(peace terms) which is worth millions, is clearly bigger than Germany can swallow. This shows that after accepting the terms, they would be drowning in huge debts and unable to support its own industrial growth. </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>It can be inferred that the 'Big Four' is forcing Germany to accept the peace terms. As seen from source A, Germany was being strangled and was forced to swallow the pill named peace teams that seem to refer to the Treaty of Versailles that cost millions, with the size bigger than the man swallowing it. This shows that Germany was forced to sign the treaty whether they liked it or not and were to be punished too harshly, and was overwhelmed by the punishment. </p><p><br/></p><p>The message is to show how Germany had no choice but to accept their punishment that was overly harsh and vindictive despite being economically crippled. As seen from source A, the pill was seem to be bigger than the amount Germany can swallow. This shows that Germany could not afford to take full responsibility of the cost and damages since they were already economically at crisis.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>The message of this source is the Treaty of Versailles was very was useless and would only result in disastrous consequences. As seen from the source, the Treaty would eventually prove disastrous. This shows that the treaty had detrimental effects on both Germany and the other European states.</p><p><br/></p><p>The purpose of this source is to convince the target audience that the Treaty of Versailles did not serve its purpose in avoiding a war. As seen from the source, many British growing up in the next twenty years agreed that the Treaty of Versailles was not worth defending. This shows that the Treaty of Versailles invited more trouble rather than resolving problems. </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>The message of this source is that Keynes think that the treaty of Versailles is a failure. As seen from the source this will eventually prove as the fall of Germany means that one of the major economic country in Europe has crippled. This means that Europe would also be poor as Germany takes a large percent of the Europe economy.</p><p><br/></p><p>The purpose of this source is to convince the audiences to not stand on the side of the treaty of versailles. As seen from the source, Germany takes up a large percentage of the economy in Europe, if Germany is poor Europes economy will experience a huge downfall. Many British people had grown up and after around 20 years since the Treaty of Versailles, the British thinks it is too harsh for Germany and it is not worth to defend the Treaty of Versailles anymore. </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>The purpose of this source is to prove that Germany was a big trading source and had many trading partners.</p><p><br></p><p>From the source, we can see that Germany was trading partners with many countries in Europe. "A poor Germany would mean a poor Europe.' This shows that Germany is linked to Europe and if Germany has no trade and becomes low on income, many other countries would not be able to trade as most of their suppliers and their big supplier is Germany. So to prevent a local dominos of consequences, the British did not want to defend the Germans as they would also be affected.</p><p><br></p><p>This concludes that Germany's high trades allowed them to have a less impact from the Treaty of Versailles. </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>John Maynard Keynes believed that the Treaty of Versailles was a major mistake because it placed excessive economic burdens on Germany. In his book <em>The Economic Consequences of the Peace</em>, Keynes argued that the reparations demanded from Germany were unrealistic and would lead to economic disaster. He claimed that the treaty aimed more at punishing Germany than creating lasting peace. This is shown in his prediction that such harsh treatment would lead to future conflict in Europe. Keynes' analysis warned that the economic collapse of Germany could destabilize the entire continent, and his concerns were later seen as accurate when economic hardship contributed to the rise of Hitler and World War II.<br>Keynes strongly criticized the Treaty of Versailles for being driven by revenge instead of fairness. He provided evidence that the treaty's harsh terms would crush Germany's economy and fuel resentment. For example, he stated that “vengeance… will not limp,” suggesting that punishing Germany would only lead to more violence in the future. This explanation shows Keynes believed that a peace treaty should rebuild Europe rather than destroy one of its key nations. His point highlights the danger of ignoring economic consequences in political decisions.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>The message of this source is that the Treaty of Versailles would be seen as ineffective after a few years. As seen from the source, Keynes argued that the Treaty would cripple Germany economically as being saddled with huge debts due to reparations meant more hardship for the people. Furthermore, Germany was Britain's greatest trading partner, hence if Britain is unable to trade with them due to their slow economic recovery, Europe's economy will slowly decline. </p><p><br/></p><p>The purpose of this source is to show that while the Treaty of Versailles was meant to restore peace in Europe, it had backfired. As seen from the source, many British growing up during the next twenty years agreed that the Treaty of Versailles was not worth defending. This shows that after awhile, Britain realised that the Treaty of Versailles was ineffective and with Germany being their greatest trading partner, their trade had been affected.</p>]]></description>
