World War One - Versailles Treaty
 "There aren't many Yanks in Turkey but an American naval force of eight destroyers is being kept in Turkish waters to protect American interests and to assist the British, French and Italian navies before Constantinople to induce compliance by Turkey with the terms of the peace treaty and to serve as a warning to cease her practices against the Armenians in Asia Minor." By the early Thirties the anointed of Europe realized that there would be no economic recovery for the continent if Germany was not a part of it.
