Answer 1

The correct option is B The Treaty of Versailles

A peace treaty called the Treaty of Versailles was signed immediately after the First World War. The unjust provisions of this treaty were one of the reasons why the Second World War broke out. In this treaty, as an attempt to stop the cycle of war and fighting over conquered land, the ‘Mandate’ system was introduced. The mandate is an authorisation granted by the League of Nations to a member nation to govern a former German or Turkish colony.
