Excerpt from The Reconstruction of South-Eastern Europe
The German militarists, in so far as they have not themselves been deceived, obviously sought to prolong and fortify the power of their caste, to justify their dominion over the obedient masses of the German people; and by adding to Germany some new provinces of the Empire as alsace-lorraine was added some forty-five years ago-they hoped to prolong the influence and the policy of their own party under the pretext that the Fatherland was menaced by the revengefulness of France or some other nation.
On the other side, the Allies, at the very outset of the present world-struggle, proclaimed that they were fighting for a high European ideal for the liberties and independence of the small nations in Europe. The long-neglected rights of the smaller and weaker nations were at last to be recognised, and the new Europe was going to be based, not on the temporary equipoise of might, but on the solid and enduring basis of the equality of rights.
