President Wilson believed that they shouldn't be too harsh on Germany & the Central Power, and believed in the 14 points (that he wrote)
However, Clemenceau and Lloyd George believed that they should put heavy reparations on Germany for being part of the losing side (even though they technically didn't start the war), to pay for all the damage costs, etc.
This led to Germany printing more money, and as their money decreased in value, it led them to the "Great Depression", which saw the arising of Adolf Hitler to power. From there, Hitler blamed the past government for not being able to fight on, and tried to build up a military force (which was forbidden under the Treaty of Versailles). However, France & Britain did not stop him, which led him taking over Europe in the next few years
hope this helps
Answer:
Germany wanted to open a front in the Americas. With the "distraction" of Mexico attacking, it may lead to US cutting off supplies and troops that would have gone to the Western Front to fight to defend their own homeland. As the Allies were heavily dependent on US products & material, this shortage of supply would lead to a weakened front, easing the front for the Germans to take advantage of.

Opportunity cost is the loss of other alternatives when one alternative is chosen. It represents the benefits an individual, investor or business misses out on when choosing one alternative over another. An example is when I choose my career path. The opportunity cost represents all the other career paths that I did not choose.
