Answer: d. France

Step-by-step explanation:

French was categorical about punishing Germany during the peace in Versailles. France demanded that Germany be blamed as the sole culprit for the outbreak of World War I. They also demanded the confiscation of a large amount of territory from Germany and the confiscation of all colonies. The United States considered it necessary to be more lenient with Germany, believing that only favourable conditions could achieve lasting peace. With its views, Great Britain was a little milder than France but again much closer to the views of the French than the United States.
