What work did the League need to do?


The league needed to re-evaluate the treaty  

The peace was forced upon Germany and they had to accept it but this has left them bitter and humiliated and has made them resent the other countries and he doesn’t believe the terms of the treaty will last and currently stand as a short-term solution.


The league needs to not let into the aggressive countries 

Lots of countries were not satisfied as they were not given the land they were promised
The countries have become aggressive.


The league needed to look after health 
There are wider problems, such as the influenza epidemic.

How satisfied were the big 3 by the treaty of Versailles?

How satisfied were the big 3 by the treaty of Versailles? Clemenceau was largely satisfied by the terms of the treaty of Versailles as he achieved most of his aims such as making Germany too weak to attack again.

France very heavily wanted Germany to pay for the damage they had caused to the country, as over 8000 miles of farmland was ruined and over 1 million lives lost. France hoped to achieve revenge and to weaken Germany. They had this strongest view as they were closest to the action and therefore experienced the worst damage as a result. Whereas America was more focused on achieving peace, they may have had a different mindset as they were more distant from the action and did not experience anywhere near that much destruction. As well as this the distance meant that the population of the country was not as involved and did not have as strong of an opinion as those who suffered more during the war. Britain  ...
