The last part was hugely controversial the Germans had seized Shandong from the Chinese and the allies rather than return it to China gave it to Japan.
The Americans as well as some other allies used the venue of Versailles to make criticisms of the rather brutal way that Japan chose to run its empire. At this stage Japan controlled Korea chunks of China as well as various other smaller territories.
