Resentful

Answer 1

Resentful

Step-by-step explanation:

Newspaper:

The excerpt is from a German newspaper in 1919.

Vengeance! German Nation!

Today, in the Hall of Mirrors at Versailles, Germany is being forced to sign a disgraceful treaty. Never forget this day!

. . . .

There will be vengeance for the shame of 1919.

It's correct on edge :)

Answer 2

The correct answer is "resentful"

The New York Times wrote about the reaction in the US towards the signing of the Treaty of Versailles on June 1919. The tone of the newspaper was clearly resentful, as it stated that the President's Statement trying to persuade the opposing senators to ratify the peace treaty did exactly the opposite, as it reinforced their reluctant position towards the treaty.
