Question

Why was Wilson not satisfied with the settlement from the Central Powers?

Answer 1

The Central Powers during World War I were leading by Germany. Austria-Hungary and Bulgaria were two of its members.

On November 11th, 1918, the Central Powers had lost the war. The Allies -United States, France, and Great Britain- had won and wanted to sign a peace treaty.

Because of the suffering, they went through, France and Britain wanted a severe treaty to punish Germany, weaken the army and destroy their weapons.

President Woodrow Wilson was not satisfied with the settlement because he did not agree with the idea of revenge and bitterness. He considered that a treaty based on justice would produce a long-lasting peace.

Finally, the Treaty of Versailles was signed on June 28, 1919.
