The US to treat Germany

Explanation:

1. To end World War I a treaty (the Treaty of Versailles) signed by all nation who fought in it to gain peace. Wilson's Fourteen Points more idealistic and less harsh on German. He believed that Germany should not be accused of the war or punished too harshly. By humiliating harshly, Germany might not be able to control its economy and would bring chaos.

2. The United States feel differently toward Germany than France because they were not affected as France was in the war. France has always held a conflict with Germany being a neighbor country. With power, Germany has controlled some of the territories that once belonged to France. America felt different because its nation not destructed as it was the other side of the ocean.

the berlin blockade was an international crisis that arose from an attempt by the soviet union, in 1948–49, to force the western allied powers (the united states, the united kingdom, and france) to abandon their post-world war ii jurisdictions in west berlin. in march 1948 the allied powers decided to unite their different occupation zones of germany into a single economic unit. in protest, the soviet representative withdrew from the allied control council. coincident with the introduction of a new deutsche mark in west berlin (as throughout west germany), which the soviets regarded as a violation of agreements with the allies, the soviet occupation forces in eastern germany began a blockade of all rail, road, and water communications between berlin and the west. on june 24 the soviets announced that the four-power administration of berlin had ceased and that the allies no longer had any rights there.
