The treaty of Versailles was a peace breaker (apparently), therefore, ending World War I. It brought Germany to great suffering; "...starving the children..." - I don't remember who that was by, but its important quote to know. That's only the partial speech, search up the speech and hopefully, you'll find it, otherwise ask your History teacher.
Nine nations created by the Treaty: Poland, Estonia, Finland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Yogoslavakia, Latvia, Estonia, and Austria. Germany was deprived of 12.5 percent of population, 10 percent of the land, all of its colonies, 16 percent of its natural resources (steel, gold etc)...War Guilt Clause 231... These are some important notes to take. However, the allies did not cut off their oil supply, this, in turn, helped Germany perp for WWII. If you're writing about Hitler's Rise to Power, you could also include the Policy of Appeasement, and ofc the Treaty of Versailles.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Yes, the growing number of interest groups support US Senator Byrd’s conclusion.
There is too much money involved in interest groups, and an increasing number of these groups have been appearing in the United States political scene. Senator Byrd was worried about this increased number and lack of control over these groups. Let's have in mind that these interest groups hire lobbyists to negotiate with legislators and offer support. But the US Congressmen had to be aware that it is the citizens that voted for them and put them in Congress as their representatives. So they serve the people, not the particular agendas of interest groups.
