Question

multiple choice 1 point which of the following statements best characterizes american attitudes towards us participation in wwi? the record profits earned by the us arms industry and banks made participation worthwhile american sacrifices were well worth the benefits that the treaty of versailles brought the world treatment of defeated powers + the decision not to join the league of nations left americans disillusioned us participation was celebrated because it allowed for the creating of the league of nations

Explanation:

After World War I, many Americans felt the sacrifices of the war were not matched by the Treaty of Versailles, and the U.S. rejection of the League of Nations (paired with anger over the harsh treatment of defeated powers) led to widespread disillusionment with the country's participation in the conflict. The other options are incorrect: the U.S. arms industry and banks did profit, but this was not the dominant public attitude; the treaty's benefits were not seen as worth the sacrifices; and U.S. participation was not celebrated, nor did the U.S. help create the League of Nations (it refused to join).

Answer:

Treatment of defeated powers + the decision not to join the League of Nations left Americans disillusioned
