a. forgive germany for having started the war
b. treat germany as an equal partner after the war
c. ensure that germany was politically stable
d. punish germany and keep it weak

The correct answer is D) punish Germany and keep it weak.

When reparations were forced on Germany in the Treaty of Versailles, this demonstrated that the Allies wanted to punish Germany and keep it weak.

During the Treaty of Versailles negotiations, United States President Woodrow Wilson created a "14 Points" plan to establish long-lasting peace in Europe after World War 1. However, the allies -led by Great Britain and France- did not want long-lasting peace as a priority. They wanted retribution to punish Germany for the millions of deaths and the destruction created during the war.
