Germany [one vote]
Does not want to pay more than 500 million in war damages to other countries
Do not want to admit you started the war
Do not want to give up any territory
Do not want to give up any overseas possessions of land
Does not want to have a smaller army, navy or air force
Note: Your aim is to try and keep as much of everything as you had before the start of WW1. You will need to try and win Britain over and ally yourself to the United States who feels sorry for you and does not want to do that much damage to you. It is no good negotiating with the French they hate you. You must try and give up as little as possible especially when in comes to land money and power but you are in a weak negotiating position if the United States and Britain don’t assist you.
