Answer:
At the Paris Peace Conference, President Wilson argued that Germany should be forced to pay reparations to the Allies.
Explanation:
The Pariz Peace Conference of 1919 was a conclave in which the victorious powers of World War I met to outline the conditions under which the peace that would conclude said conflict would be signed. These four nations were America, Britain, France and Italy, who had different positions, ambitions and requirements.
Of all these nations, America, represented by President Wilson, was the one seeking a more just and lasting peace. Thus, although it identified Germany as the aggressor nation and condemned it to pay the corresponding war reparations, it did not seek the total dismantling of the economic and productive capacity of Germany, as if it were done by France, Italy and to a lesser extent Britain, who saw Germany as a threat to their own interests and sought, in addition to paying reparations, other types of harsher sanctions.
The Declaration of Independence was merely a document declaring just that, the colonies' independence from the British crown. It contained three parts. The first section, the Natural Rights Theory, which listed the ideas that all men are created equal and they are endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights. The second section, Grievances against the King, which listed, quite extensively, the ways <em>King George III </em>had misused his power and acted like a tyrant, such as imposing taxes and tariffs without consent, cutting off trade, and keeping a standing army against the colonies. The third section, the Declaration of Independence from the British Empire, establishes the colonies to be in open rebellion and to be fully independent.
The Bill of Rights is the first 10 amendments from the Constitution of the United States of America. It lists the inalienable rights the framers of the Constitution believed the American people held. The Bill of Rights is a piece of legislature, it conveys the personal freedoms enjoyed by all Americans, such as the right to free speech, the right to petition the government, the right to keep and bear arms, the right to a fair and speedy trial, and right against unlawful search and seizure, to name a few. The Constitution can be altered, and has been, 27 times. The Declaration of Independence does not need to be amended, as it merely declared our independence from the British crown.
Although both extremely important documents for the American people and American history, the Constitution is apart of our everyday lives, whether we know it or not. The freedoms we experience in the United States is due to the Constitution's stipulations about such freedoms. The Declaration was, and still remains, just a declaration of independence.
