This clause would cause several disputes between Wilson and his fellow Senators, which had eventually led to the vetoing of the Treaty
After World War, leaders of different countries gathered in Paris to discuss the terms of a peace agreement in 1919. In fact, Prime Minister Borden also fought for Canada to have its own seat in the Paris Peace Conference. The Treaty of Versailles was a document which set out the terms for a peace agreement.

He discussed ways to promote peace throughout the United States such as Freedom on the Seas, Removal of Trade Barriers and the setup of the League of Nations. In order to keep that society made by Wilson’s fourteen points of peace and the Treaty of Versailles the League of Nations was set up to avoid conflict and to keep the peace-like
Using his Fourteen Points initiative he kicked off in January 1918, he was able to establish a theme for the peace conference after the end of the war. While the importance of this initiative was not seen at the time, it became the foundation for the “democratic peace theory of international relations in the twentieth century.” America joined the war all in, making a large impact on the German advance and providing needed assistance to the Allies. The Americans overwhelmed the Germans with their manpower and resources, and pushed the Germans back, causing the German kaiser to quit and to pursue
Wilson viewed America as a nation of peace and he wanted to preserve this view. However, as time went on, the little things the U.S did while claiming its neutrality started to matter.

On June 28, 1919, Germany and the Allied Powers signed the Treaty of Versailles, formally ending one of the bloodiest wars in modern history. World War I caused the deaths of nearly ten million soldiers and up to thirteen million non-combatants. Catastrophic property and industry losses occurred, especially in France, Belgium, Poland, and Serbia.
Germany’s broken policies and the decoded Zimmerman note were the major causes of Woodrow Wilson’s declaration of war. When the beginning of World War I came around, it was a very difficult time for everyone. President Wilson pledged a state of neutrality on behalf of the United States and had a vast majority of Americans backing him up in the meantime. However, it wasn’t long until tension started to rise up in America
He effectively rallied the American people in support of the war effort and was especially successful in depicting the war as a battle for democracy (Ibid). After the Germans signed the Armistice in November 1918, Wilson went to Paris to attempt to construct a persevering peace. At the Paris Peace Conference, which opened in January 1919 and incorporated the leaders of the British, French and Italian governments, Wilson arranged the Treaty of Versailles. The treaty of Versailles would ultimately end the War and it reassigned German boundaries and assigned liability for reparations. However, included in this was a charter for the League of Nations; an association expected to referee worldwide question and forestall future wars.
Finally in 1917, Wilson declared war against Germany and allied with the Allied powers.
Finally, Germany wasn 't going to give up. They wanted to win this thing. President Wilson said "Victory would mean peace forced upon the loser. " Meaning, if the Allies won the war, then Germany would have to face the consequences, which would end the war (deaths,
On November 11th 1918(the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month), the First World War officially ended. So this day Allies (France, Britain and USA) had a great joy.

Also they had agreed (Armistice) to stop fighting during the terms of peace were consulted.
The treaty was written to end the fighting between Germany and the allied power. Even though the treaty was signed at June 28, 1919, the treaty was not processed till October 21, 1919 by the League of Nations. Even though the treaty was made to stop the fighting between Germany and the Allied power. The treaty had major flaws.
Introduction World War I came to an end with the signing of the Treaty of Versailles on June 28, 1919. The treaty was signed to create lasting peace. The treaty was negotiated between the three allied powers of Britain, France and the United States with no participation from Germany. The treaty 's negotiations revealed a split between the three allied powers with France intending to weaken Germany in such a manner that it would make it impossible for it to renew hostilities. However, Britain and the United States objected to some of the provisions because of the fear that it would be a pretext for another war.
“When the peace treaty is signed, the war isn’t over” (Marlantes). When the fighting stopped on the battlefront of World War I many leaders of different countries gathered together in Paris. They were there to discuss the Treaty of Versailles that would ensure permanent peace. The treaty that was created was extremely unfair to Germany. The Treaty of Versailles was far from perfect, but some of the biggest faults were forcing Germany to take the blame for the whole war, demanding they give up all of their colonies and decrease the size of their military, and paying reparations to the Allies.
