Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

UK: The UK wanted the British Empire to reign supreme and free access to seas in peacetime, however knew that making the treaty too harsh would provoke another war (foreshadowing)

France: France wanted Germany to be partitioned into separate states, which was basically pre-brothers war Germany. They wanted the Germans to be banned from ever uniting again.

US: The US wanted its 14 points to become the image of the League of Nations. However not all of these 14 points were met and the US soon returned to its isolationist pre-war policy.
