This is an old revision of this page, as edited by 89.243.165.189 (talk) at 23:45, 16 August 2016 (Unsourced. Very hard to call the Weimar Republic a power due to the heavy economic/military sanctions and the poor economy that was bad enough to allow Hitler to get votes).

Notes included with template

  1. ^ After the Statute of Westminster came into effect in 1931, the United Kingdom no longer represented the British Empire in world affairs.
  2. ^ "The Prime Minister of Canada (during the Treaty of Versailles) said that there were 'only three major powers left in the world the United States, Britain and Japan' ... (but) The Great Powers could not be consistent. At the instance of Britain, Japan's ally, they gave Japan five delegates to the Peace Conference, just like themselves, but in the Supreme Council the Japanese were generally ignored or treated as something of a joke." from MacMillan, Margaret (2003). Paris 1919. United States of America: Random House Trade. p. 306. ISBN 0-375-76052-0.
