At the Paris Peace Conference in Versailles Palace, France, the European countries practically ignored the 14 points stated by US President Woodrow Wilson for one simple reason. European countries not only wanted peace but revenge. They demanded retribution. That is why they forced Germany to pay reparations for all the damage caused in World War 1. The participants of the Conference were the leaders of these four countries: David Lloyd George (England), Woodrow Wilson (US), Vottorio Orlando (Italy), and Geroge Clemenceau (France).
