Try This:
==While playing the game I learned that it was not easy to pass the proceeding levels. The game was more strategic than I expected. Once you failed in the mission there would be a commentary reading. This would then provide some insight as to what you did that led to your failure. Certain missions were unbelievably hard to pass in my opinion. Over all it was a frustrating game because there was really no advancement unless you have gone through every possible option combination.==

 * Background**:

At the end of the War, each of the major allied powers had a different viewpoint on what should be included in the peace treaty. The French wanted to punish Germany. The United States under the direction of President Wilson wanted a treaty that would promote stability and world peace (Fourteen Points). The British seemed to fall somewhere between the two. Italy, on the other hand wanted to increase it territory.
