History

This cartoon is from 1919. The Big Four leaders are standing on a pill bottle and force-feeding a pill to a figure representing Germany. The pill says "peace terms. " A hand is holding Germany in place, and each finger has the name of an Allied country. The Big Four are saying, "You've got to swallow it whether you like it or not!" What is the message of the cartoon? Germany had no choice but to sign the Treaty of Versailles. Germany was wrong to have stopped fighting in World War I. Germany is as strong as the countries holding the spoon. Germany will regain its strength through the help of the Allied nations.
