The Treaty of Versailles was the most important of the peace treaties that brought World War I to an end. The Treaty ended the state of war between Germany and the Allied Powers. It was signed on 28 June 1919, exactly five years after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand.

But who was the big 3. They were the 3 most important men present at the Versailles conference. These 3 men were: George Clemenceau (who was France's president) And Thomas Woodrow Wilson, who was America's president. And finally David Lloyd, who was the president of Britain. But after all what did they want from Germany?

George Clemenceau wanted revenge because Germany completely bombarded France after the war.

Thomas Woodrow Wilson wanted a peace treaty signed with justice and respect.

David Lloyd wanted wanted peace but also wanted Germany to suffer because of the havoc they created however didn't want the suffering for Germany to be to harsh because he knew in the future it would create World War 2, and that is exactly what happened.

I really hope this helped if you want anymore extra information please ask and i will be happy to help. Thanks
