Leaders from both sides.
Woodrow Wilson, the president of the United States at the time, was one of the most significant leaders of the allied forces. He led the US in the war efforts. The biggest accomplishment by him during this time, though, was his application in the treaty in Paris. He established his 14 Points which helped alot in the negotiations.
Willhelm II was the leader of Germany who was part of the Central Powers during WWI. Bombastic and impetuous, he made Rash decisions on crucial topics without consulting his ministers. This is what caused him to mobalise his troops in support of Austria-Hungary and inject him into a losing battle which was WWI.
