Treaty of Versailles
Subject:
The Treaty of Versailles was the peace settlement signed after World War One had ended in 1918 and in the shadow of the Russian Revolution and other events in Russia. The treaty was signed at the vast Versailles Palace near Paris - hence its title - between Germany and the Allies. The three most important politicians there were David Lloyd George, Georges Clemenceau and Woodrow Wilson. The Versailles Palace was considered the most appropriate venue simply because of its size - many hundreds of people were involved in the process and the final signing ceremony in the Hall of Mirrors could accommodate hundreds of dignitaries. Many wanted Germany, now led by Friedrich Ebert, smashed - others, like Lloyd George, were privately more cautious.

Jonathan G. Bernal Block 1 March 28, 2010 The Treaty of Versailles The Treaty of Versailles signed by the Allied countries and Germany was the main term to end the Great War after the amnesties of 1918. The U.S. president Woodrow Wilson presented a 14-point plan that provided the outline for the Treaty of Versailles, although Germany hoped the Treaty would be based on Woodrow's plan, only 4 of the points were actually included in the Treaty of Versailles. At the Hall of Mirrors, the Treaty of Versailles finally ended the Great War, but this created a setting for World War II because of the antagonism left by the U.S, France, and Germany.
