During the peace conference U.S. President Woodrow Wilson
prioritized his 14 Points as a framework for the peace plan. He had to concede with the other people for
the sake of peace. British Priminister
Lloyd George wanted to ensure France’s security but he did not want severe sanctions
against Germany. French leader George Clemenceau on the other hand wanted to
ensure that Germany won’t invade them again.
He also wanted heavy penalties on Germany.
Thanks to Meerkat18
France’s high casualties and its desire to protect itself
France’s desire to punish Germany
Wilson’s idealistic Fourteen Points and his desire for a fair and just peace
Britain’s desire for moderation
That many believed the treaty was too harsh
Hope this helps
