The Germans were also furious about the various terms of the Treaty. They hated clause 231 – the ‘War Guilt’ clause – which stated that Germany had caused ‘all the loss and damage’ of the war. Firstly, the Germans did not think that they had caused the war (for the Germans, the war was a war of self-defence against Russia, which had mobilised 31 July 1914). During the 1920s, the Germans published all their secret documents from 1914, to prove they had tried to stop the war. Secondly, the Germans hated clause 231 because accepting it gave the Allies the moral right to punish Germany – it validated all the harsh terms of the Treaty.

Answer:
The correct answer is <u>B) Great Britain</u>
Explanation:
At one time, Great Britain had the largest Empire in world history. It was famously said that the <u>'Sun never sets on the British Empire'</u>
This was in reference to the size of the Empire which was so large that at any given moment the sun always shined on at least one it's territories.
As an example, modern countries of Canada, Australia, the United States, India and large parts of Africa were all part of the British Empire.
