The US failed to ratify the WWI treaty for several reasons: A. It did not include provisions for the League of Nations. B. Concerns were raised that the League of Nations might entangle the US in future wars. C. There were desires for Germany to provide financial reparations to the US. D. It aimed for France to capitulate to the US.

Answer: B. Concerns were raised that the League of Nations might entangle the US in future wars.

The primary reason the United States failed to ratify the Treaty of Versailles, which formally ended World War I, was concern over Article 10 of the covenant of the League of Nations. This article called for collective security and could potentially require the US to participate in foreign conflicts not directly related to its own national interests, thus entangling the US in future wars. A group of Senators, known as "Irreconcilables," opposed the treaty outright, while another group, led by Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, known as "Reservationists," demanded specific changes to the treaty. Neither A, as the treaty did include provisions for the League of Nations, C, as Germany was required to provide reparations but not specifically to the US, nor D, as the issue was not about France capitulating to the US but rather the terms of Germany's punishment and the balance of power in Europe, summarize the reason for the US's failure to ratify the treaty.
