Answer: Start date: 4 May 1919

Locations: Beijing

Step-by-step explanation:

Students protested against the Chinese government's weak response to the Treaty of Versailles, they especially protested against its decision to allow Japan to retain territories in Shandong that had been surrendered by Germany after the Siege of Tsingtao in 1914.
