which statement about world war i is true?

a. the allied powers followed wilson’s fourteen points.

b. germany preferred to keep fighting rather than accept the terms
for peace.

c. although the armistice took place on november 11, 1918, fighting
continued on the western front.

d. germany was forced to pay the allied powers and accept blame
for the war.

Explanation:

• Option A: The Allied Powers did not fully follow Wilson’s Fourteen Points; the Treaty of Versailles (which shaped post - WWI peace) deviated from many of these points.
• Option B: Germany was in a desperate situation by late 1918, with domestic unrest and military collapse, so it sought an armistice rather than preferring to keep fighting.
• Option C: The armistice on November 11, 1918, meant the fighting on the western front (and elsewhere) stopped; there was no continued fighting after the armistice.
• Option D: The Treaty of Versailles forced Germany to accept the "War Guilt Clause" and pay heavy reparations to the Allied Powers, which is a well - known aspect of post - WWI history.

Answer:

D. Germany was forced to pay the Allied Powers and accept blame for the war.
