Wilson fought very hard to ratify these points into the treaty of Versailles, but in the end, he could not do so. One main reason for this was the forces attacking him. However, some would argue that Wilson was the reason for this failure. He made a big mistake by not including any republican senators in the peace conference. He was not able to convince the republicans to accept this treaty because he did not include them in on it.
Frederick William shared this view and was unwilling to potentially cause a war with such a powerful state. This caused the Frankfurt Parliament to fail because Prussia did not grasp the opportunity to unite and neither did the King, therefore Germany remained divided. Although he desired power, William IV was not willing to put himself and Prussia under control of the Frankfurt Parliament as he distrusted ‘the gentlemen of Frankfurt’. This meant that the Parliament had no real leader, and so lost support because people distrusted the parliament as an influential figure stated he would not be associated with them. This aided in causing the failure of the Parliament because with no real leader, no one could influence the masses or help to make decisions.
Furthermore, Congress was disappointed in the fact that Wilson left some important things in order to compromise with the other countries. Many people believed the League of Nations was completely unnecessary for the US, since it mostly dealt with issues not concerning the US. They did not want to get involved with future European affairs. However, Wilson believed that the only way to prevent future wars was to establish the League of Nations. Wilson’s rock solid position on the League of Nations was one of the most significant reasons why the treaty was never passed.
His actions just showed how much he didn’t care and how he got in the way of the development of the state as a whole. The whole time he didn’t allow new people to be elected into these positions, it left the state in the mean time exposed to danger of invasion from the outside and other disturbances from
The first two interpretations wouldn’t have directly effected Liverpool’s government; however, the final interpretation stating it may have had political as well as economic aims, leads people to think this may have been a serious radical challenge to Liverpool’s government. Liverpool’s Government certainly thought so and made machine-breaking a capital offence and posted over 12,000 troops to the Luddite areas. Following the end of Luddism, the period between 1812- 1815 witnessed relatively little in the way of popular protest, however, post 1815 saw the revival of radical activity and was described by historian E.P. Thompson as ‘the heroic age of popular radicalism’.
He made a few speeches that give the audience a bad view of him and make him look arrogant and ignorant. “…Just because the Kaiser makes a speech or two…Everything to loose with war, and nothing to gain.” And to Eric, “…And I say there isn’t a chance of
This was a huge failure because the English army ended up falling apart due to a lack of supplies and had to return home with nothing being achieved. Another reason pointing towards a lack of resources being to blame for Henry’s foreign policy being a failure is shown in source 4. The source says, ‘The young warrior finally accepted the fact that royal finances could not support a repetition of the campaign of 1513.’ This statement suggests that even Henry knew himself that he was unable to defeat the other countries on his own because he
He lacked in knowledge in wars and responsibility of succeeding Russia as his son and as a loyal subject. In addition, Peter try to convince his son to learn art of war and leading country as an essential to Alexis so that people will look upon. In a letter Peter state that “You have no inclination to learn the art of war, you do not apply yourself to it and consequently you will never learn it”. In rest of the sentence he referred his brother and king of France as an successful leader that their subjects look upon. This statement clearly shows that Alexis was in no interest
“Assistant Secretary of State Breckinridge Long, the man responsible for immigration policy, personified a tradition of gentlemanly anti-Semitism. Polite on the surface but deeply bigoted, Long used his authority over visas to place obstacles in the way of desperate Jewish refugees” (Davidson, Delay, et. al., 2008, p.791). People who had power in Congress ignored the requests of the Jews. The U.S. State Department delayed publicizing reports of genocide.
"He has dissolved Representtative Houses repeatedly..his invasions on the rights of the people" I believe this is why the 4th admendment came about because there were unlawful search and siezures that may have crippled many people's lives. "He has refused his assent to Laws..for the public good" I believe this is why the 1st amendment was created, because they king didn't do anything for the public good or for thier rights to practice whatever religion they wanted and to have free will to speak whatever was on thier mind without being punished for it. Also for the 9th amendment because that one states that the rights in the constitution should not be denied of construed. "He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the civil
