Georges Clemenceau: France


Wilson's Plan for Peace:
In January 1918, while war was still raging, President had drawn up a series pf proposals.
Known as the Fourteen Points
The first four points included and end to secret treaties, freedom of seas, free trade, and reduced national armies and navies.
The guiding idea behind these points was self-determination.
This reflected Wilson's hope for an organization that could peacefully negotiate solutions to world conflicts

Fourteen Points: Outlined a plan for achieving a just and lasting peace
self-determination: allowed people to decide for themselves under what government they wished to live

The Versailles Treaty:
A Paris Peace Conference opened, Britain and France showed a little sign of agreeing to Wilson's vision of peace
They also wanted to strip Germany of its war-making power
The differences in French, Britain, and U.S. aims lead to heated arguments among the nations' leaders

The Western powers signed separate peace treaties in 1919 and 1920 with each other defeated nations: Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria, and the Ottoman Empire
The Ottoman Turks were forced to give up almost all of their former empire
Russia, which had left war early, suffered land losses as well 



"A Peace Built on Quicksand"
In the end, The treaty of Versailles did little to building the last piece
Many Americans objected to the settlement and especially to President Wilson's League of Nations
The United States worked out a separate treaty with Germany and its allies several years later
