Question

What occurred, in part, because of President Wilson’s Fourteen Points?

A). The Central powers suffered four million military deaths, half of which were German soldiers.
B). Germany requested an armistice to end the war and negotiate peace terms.
C). The Paris Peace Conference took place without President Wilson in attendance.
D). The United States ratified the Treaty of Versailles in 1920.

Answer 1

B). Germany requested an armistice to end the war and negotiate peace terms.

Wilson’s Fourteen Points (January 1918) became the basis for Allied peace demands; by late 1918 Germany sought an armistice and was told it must accept those terms, leading to the November 1918 armistice.
