Answer: France wanted Germany to be punished and assurance that Germany would not be able to threaten France in the future.

Details/context:

The peace settlement that was signed at Versailles in 1919, at the end of the First World War, imposed very harsh terms against Germany.  Germany was blamed for causing the war, and France had been a primary victim, with much of the war's battlefront being fought on French soil.  So France was looking for protections against future aggression.  American president Woodrow Wilson had wanted a resolution to the conflict that would be more focused on building future peace between nations.  France, however, felt deeply wronged and vulnerable, and wanted Germany to be punished as an aggressor.  Great Britain tended to support France's position.

As a result, the Treaty of Versailles, which came out of the Paris Peace Conference in 1919, was very punitive towards Germany.  Germany was forced to admit responsibility for causing the Great War (World War I).  We now call that "the war guilt" clause of the treaty.  Germany also was forced to pay large reparation payments to the Allies (who opposed Germany in the war).   The German economy and national pride were deeply affected by this.  On top of that, the Great Depression (which was a global phenomenon) became worse in Germany than in America.  The bad situation in Germany made it possible for a radical leader like Hitler, making all sorts of bold promises, to win over enough people to rise to power.  So the Versailles treaty's attempts to protect France and punish Germany backfired, and actually led to a second, even more deadly Second World War.

Unlike president, the election for the senate happens every 2 years and only 1/3 of its members are up for election. This means that it won't be possible for senate body to had drastic change in policies because the majority of the seats will always be filled by old-timers.</span>

Evaluate president johnson's great society program. do you think that its goals were realistic? admirable? why did it receive su
Roman55 [17]
President Johnson envisioned an American society in which poverty and racial discrimination were eliminated. Along with this, he also discussed the need for the conservation of nature, help to the elderly/underprivileged, and the development of America's education system. All of these were admirable goals. However, it would be considered unrealistic to get rid of poverty and racial discrimination as a whole. This would involve a significant amount of government support and a complete cultural change of all American citizens.

Despite not being able to accomplish these goals, this program did receive significant praise because it improved the quality of life for millions of Americans. With programs such as Medicare and Medicaid, individuals who before could not afford medical treatment were now able to see doctors. This also resulted in the free/reduced lunch program which to this day still provides meals for millions of underprivileged students.
