SELECTED
Woodrow Wilson
primary
A tall, lean man in his early 60s with a long, angular face, high forehead, and piercing gray-blue eyes. His posture is erect, though slightly stooped from years of academic and political work. He wears round spectacles that often slip down his nose, which he adjusts frequently. His hair is gray and thinning, combed neatly to the side.
Georges Clemenceau
primary
A wiry, sharp-featured man with a thick white mustache and piercing eyes that reflect his fierce determination. His posture is upright, exuding authority and resilience.
David Lloyd George
secondary
A man of average height with a full head of wavy, graying hair and a neatly trimmed mustache. His sharp, piercing eyes convey both charm and shrewdness.
Vittorio Orlando
secondary
A middle-aged Italian statesman with a composed demeanor, dressed in formal attire befitting the diplomatic setting. His posture is upright, reflecting his political stature.
Interpreter
background
A middle-aged man of slight build, with sharp features and keen eyes that dart between speakers. His dark hair is neatly combed, and he wears round spectacles that perch on the bridge of his nose. His posture is upright but unobtrusive, designed to blend into the background while remaining attentive.

Dialog

Georges Clemenceau Monsieur Wilson, your League of Nations is a noble dream, but dreams do not stop German cannons.
Woodrow Wilson In point of fact, Monsieur Clemenceau, a lasting peace requires more than punitive measures—it demands a system to prevent future conflicts.
David Lloyd George Gentlemen, might we consider a middle path? France’s security is paramount, but so is stability for all of Europe.
Georges Clemenceau Stability? Germany bled France dry. They will pay—every franc, every drop of blood.
Woodrow Wilson As a matter of principle, vengeance sows the seeds of the next war. History will judge us harshly if we repeat past mistakes.
David Lloyd George The world watches Versailles today. Let us not give them another war to watch tomorrow.
Georges Clemenceau Then let Germany watch us rebuild—with their gold.
