The united states senate rejected the treaty of versailles mainly because the treaty a) returned alsace-lorraine to france. b) required the payment of german reparations. c) divided germany into four occupation zones. d) included the covenant of the league of nations.

D) Included the Covenant of the League of Nations.

Although the provision of the creation of the "Covenant of the League of Nations" was indeed an idea proposed and championed by the U.S. President Woodrow Wilson, the U.S. Congress refused to enter the League, and therefore it decided not to ratify the Treaty of Versailles.

For the Congress, and many other Americans, entering the League would mean that they would have to participate in permanent economic-politic alliances that didn't serve their interests, thus breaking their precious isolationist policy that had only been briefly interrupted due to the war. The U.S. preferred to stay out of global affairs and focus on domestic issues instead.

Answering the question, the US Senate rejected the Treaty of Versailles because the treaty included the Covenant of the League of Nations.

The inclusion of the covenants of the League of Nations in the Treaty of Versailles was an idea of President Woodrow Wilson and because of its inclusion; the US Congress refused to join the League of Nations and decided not to ratify the treaty of Versailles.

The treaty of the Versailles was a peace treaty that ended World War I. World War I was between Allies and Germany, which was the main enemy of the United States.

Although the treaty was endorsed by representatives of all the countries but to be considered by the US, it has to be ratified by congress.

The congress felt that joining the League of Nations would mean the United States would lose some of its powers including political and economic powers

Many Americans were also on the same page with the congress, they believe participating in the League of Nations will not be in the interest of the United States.

Thus, The United States Senate rejected the Treaty of Versailles mainly because the treaty included the Covenant of the League of Nations.
