World War I was one of the most brutal and bloodiest war ever fought in the early twentieth century. The war left ten million soldiers dead, seven million civilians dead, and another ten million people to be wounded (Background Essay). It was the Triple Alliance, Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Turkey, against the Triple Entente, France, Britain, Russia, and Italy (Background Essay). The war ended with the Paris Peace Conference where world leaders meet up to discuss about a creation of a treaty to settle the peace terms. President Woodrow Wilson of the U.S. simply wanted to create a League of Nations to settle future conflicts and to avoid war (Background Essay).

The Treaty of Versailles was a formal peace treaty between the Word War I Allies and Germany. The leaders of Britain, France, Italy and the United States met in Paris in early 1919 to draft the treaty. President Woodrow Wilson presented his Fourteen Points, a series of measures intended to ensure future peace. The points included the formation of an international organization known as the League of Nation, which was adopted in the treaty. Representatives of each country signed the treaty in June 1919.

Many factors contribute to a group of people failing to accomplish a goal, but the stubbornness of participants often is a leading cause. The Senate’s failure to ratify the Treaty of Versailles in 1919 shows this idea, due to the feud between President Woodrow Wilson and the Internationalists, and Henry Cabot Lodge and the Reservationists. The Internationalists fully supported the passing of the Treaty of Versailles, whereas the Reservationists believed it was necessary to change the Treaty, specifically Article Ten. Similarly, Borah and the Irreconcilables believed that the League of Nations was in conflict with one of the ideals the nation was founded on; to not engage in foreign entanglements. As Senator William Borah, put it, the League

Almost all nations desired to completely destroy Germany and make them work almost like slaves (Doc 3). The other nations act as if they had no part or fault in the war when in reality they were part of it just as much as Germany. Great Britain, France, and Italy all wanted revenge and saw this as their opportunity to get it. The treaty caused restrictions to their military and also made Germany lose their territory and colonies. The fault was entirely placed on their shoulders and the weight only became greater with the treaty. Germany was also not the one to start the war but yet were accused of it

The Versailles Treaty was created in order to prevent any further wars from happening such as the calamity that was WWI, however could it be the very reason the Germans felt they needed to strike back at their enemies and cause an even greater calamity than the first World War known as WWII? After the first world war, the Versailles Treaty was created by the nations that won the first world war. Although it was majorly created by the delegates of the 3 biggest powers: Premier George Clemenceau of France, Prime Minister David Prime Lloyd of Britain, and President Woodrow Wilson of the U.S. It consisted of terms that Germany had to abide by after they were forced to sign it after being ignored

Therefore, Thomas Jefferson sent a treaty to halt the impressment of US sailors and sent William Pinckney and James Monroe to negotiate with the British. Unfortunately, the British did not compromise on the issue. France and Britain’s feud continued to negatively affect the US.

Instead of Wilson’s mindset and actions, it was the Senate and popular opposition that led to the defeat of the Treaty of Versailles in the U.S. Senate. This can be seen through two points. Firstly this can be seen when, Wilson claims that Article X is an inevitable system to the League of Nations. The other can be seen when Herbert Hoover talks about the wrongs imposed in the Treaty. Due to the fact that Wilson had such a stubborn mindset, it goes to show how strong his opposing forces were.

The Versailles Treaty was when the Big Four countries met together to see what could be done to help end the war and for it not to happen again. These Big Four countries were the ones that controlled the negotiations and made the decisions, people could make suggestions, but it was up to those countries. These Big Four countries were Britain, France, Italy, and the United States. These states were trying to get their wishes to come reality, and hopefully not starting another war. This leading to Germany becoming very weak and without a way to fight for a very long time, which was about 20 years. The Treaty of Versailles was actually a very big contribution for starting World War II.

On October 2, 1919, at the White House in Washington, D.C., United States President Woodrow Wilson suffered a massive stroke that left him partially paralyzed on the left half of his body. Wilson had poured all his strength into a last-ditch effort to win public support for the Versailles treaty and its vision of international cooperation through a league of nations after World War 1. After the senate foreign relations committee began it debate on the treaty, Wilson took the unprecedented step of appearing before the committee to argue for ratification, making it clear he would accept no changes to the treaty. While the committee— headed by Wilsons nemesis republican senator Henry Cabot Lodge—voted on many amendments to the treaty, while ignoring
