Motives of France
- George Clemenceau leader of France
- Wanted to dismember Germany
- Weaken Germany so they could never make war again
- Wanted severe reparations paid
- To dismember Germany would mean dividing the country up so that they would not be a whole nation.
- Reparations was money that Germany had to pay for all of the damage that they had caused during world war one. The amount was so high that they could not even pay the interest of the amount due.
"It is easier to make war than make peace." - George Clemenceau
How would the world be shaped politically today if France didn't demand
higher war reparations from Germany?
