DBQ
Woodrow Wilson
He was President of America.
He was a History professor. He wanted to mak
the world safe. He wanted to end war by
making a fair peace.
In 1918, Wilson published 'Fourteen Points
saying what he wanted.
He said that he wanted disarmament, and a
League of Nations (where countries could tall
out their problems, without war).
He also promised self-determination for the
peoples of Eastern Europe.
David Lloyd George
He was Prime Minister of Great Britain.
He said he would 'make Germany pay' -
because he knew that was what the British
people wanted to hear.
Source B
We entered this war because violations of right had
occurred which touched us to the quick and made
the life of our own people impossible unless they
were corrected and the world secure once for all
against their recurrence. What we demand in this
war, therefore, is nothing peculiar to ourselves. It is
that the world be made fit and safe to live in; and
particularly that it be made safe for every peace-
loving nation which, like our own, wishes to live its
own life, determine its own institutions, be assured
of justice and fair dealing by the other peoples of
the world as against force and selfish aggression.
Woodrow Wilson, speaking to Congress on 8 January 1918,
introducing his "Fourteen Points.
He wanted 'justice', but he did not want
revenge. He said that the peace must not be
harsh - that would just cause another war in a
few years time. He tried to get a 'halfway
point' - a compromise between Wilson and
Clemenceau.
He ALSO wanted to expand the British Empire,
maintain British control of the seas, and increase
Britain's trade
