Woodrow Wilson and David Lloyd George were two of the representatives at the peace accords in Paris that felt that a vindictive peace treaty would only lead to a future conflict. Wilson said: “It must be a peace without victory….Victory would mean peace forced upon the loser, a victor’s terms imposed upon the vanquished. It would be accepted in humiliation, under duress, at an intolerable sacrifice, and would leave a sting, a resentment, a bitter memory upon which terms of peace would rest, not permanently, but only as upon quicksand. Only a peace between equals can last.” Was the final product of the treaty a “peace between equals” or was it too harsh on Germany? Were the Germans in fact guilty of causing the war? Should they bear sole responsibility?

Schach [20]

Russian country was struck by a huge crisis. The old regime must be preserved. The Tsar as a right ruler of our empire must be protected. If we do not act accordingly, the Bolsheviks will destroy everything and take us to another war. They will make us kill each other in a civil war in order for them to take all the wealth for themselves. My fellow workers, we urge you to stay calm and survive in this upcoming period. We know the situation is bad, but the only way for us as people to obtain our freedom and our right to work and earn bread on our tables is to stop the revolution and to maintain the current government. Freedom or nothing!
