“I know no parties, I know only Germans!” “As a sign that you are
determined, without party difference without difference of root,
without religious difference be sustained with me through thick and
thin, through misery and death to go, I call on the Executive Boards of
the parties to step up and pledge that to me in the hand.”
1914, Kaiser Wilhelm II

the fortress’

Imagine you are the leader(s) of France and G.B., what will be your
reaction to Wilson’s recommendations?

The Treaty of Versailles
TTYN: What is the purpose of a treaty
Early 1919, The peacemakers assembled in Paris to accomplish the
following:
• To treat the root causes of the conflict
• Find solutions to problems either created or exacerbated by the War
itself
The ‘Players’ – The Big Three
• Woodrow Wilson – U.S.
• David Lloyd George – G.B.
• Georges Clemenceau -France

The Treaty includes no provision for the economic rehabilitation of Europe - nothing to make the defeated Central Powers into good neighbours, nothing to stabilise the new States of Europe, nothing to reclaim Russia; nor does it promote in any way a compact of economic solidarity amongst the Allies themselves; no arrangement was reached at Paris for restoring the disordered finances of France and Italy, or to adjust the systems of the Old World and the New.
It is an extraordinary fact that the fundamental economic problem of a Europe starving and disintegrating before their eyes, was the one question in which it was impossible to arouse the interest of the Four. Reparation was their main excursion into the economic field, and they settled it from every point of view except that of the economic future of the States whose destiny they were handling.
