Because in 1917, Russia had two revolutions and their government was overthrown, replaced by communists. The communists believed that the war was just a bunch of rich countries fighting over things that didn't really belong to them, so they refused to have anything to do with it.
The treaty of Versailles was put on in the end of the war and Germans didnt like it. The treaty overlooked treating all nations justly, including the losers of a war.
because they cannot prevent
It started with Russia backing out of the war when they signed the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk with Germany, and then when Germany backed out of the war, the Treaty of Versailles was signed causing Germany to pay reparations, accept the war-guilt clause, etc.
IT SIGNED for WW1 BUT THE US DIDNT JOIN IT SO IT FAILED. AND WOODROW WILSON MADE IT AND THERE IS THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS IN THE TREATY OF VERSALIES.
This is a puzzling question, and I'm left guessing what you mean. When and how might America have had the opportunity or desire to 'choose Germany's fate'? Are you, perhaps, thinking of the Treaty of Versailles (1919)?
they didnt realy care because every country was buisy dealing with the great depression to go to war with germany witch would just make them more broke
Germany , though they didnt start the war they were all around the strongest army in the world and the reason the war stretched as long as it did, and also why in the treaty of Versailles were punished the most
The German people were unhappy with it's terms and many felt it should have never been accepted in the first place. Reparations were heavy and there were limits imposed on military build up, etc. Hitler took advantage of these bad feelings and the politicians were referred to as "the traitors of Versailles:
Many of the German people linked the Weimar with the treaty of Versailles as it was the Weimar who signed it. Also the German people didnt want a democracy as they were happy with the kaiser who was a dictator but the Weimar was forced upon them by the Allies at the end of WW1
no it didnt. the treaty helped the fall actually
no he didnt
Wilson wasn't very satisfied about all of the terms, because he thought they were too harsh and that they were punishing some ordinary Germans that have nothing to do with the war.
