2. Some Andorran diplomat?

[IronBlood]

Still a little stumped on this question..Can't be England, France, Germany, or Italy because their signers resigned or retired before WWII. Can't be Russia because it made peace with Germany before WWI offically ended...Turkey's governement went under changes between wars...I just can't think of it. Is it the Japanese signer?

[gowski]

I heard somewhere that Andorra didn't ratify the Treaty of Versailles until during WWII or something like that, so I figure it must be the Andorran diplomat. Problem is, I can't find his name.

[removeduser_426582376423734]

Can't find the name of the diplomat anywhere. Boris I?

[The Friend]

2 can be Philip Petain ? Vichy France did sign a peace treaty with Germany.

[Marcus Trajan]

No correct answer so far.
Hint: He was not British but served as a British Field Marshal in both WW1 and WW2. Einstein said he was "one of only eleven men in the world" who conceptually understood his Theory of Relativity.

[Carl von Döbeln]

2)Jan Smuts

[Hookah Smoking Caterpiller]

2 Sir Thomas Blamey (Australian)?

[Marcus Trajan]

2)Jan Smuts

Correct! He served as Prime Minister of South Africa from 1919 until 1924 and from 1939 until 1948 and signed both treaties. Einstein came to admire him after reading his book 'Holism and Evolution'.

Now Ironblood or Carl can post next question. (I'll give rep to both.)

[Carl von Döbeln]

Ironblood will have the honor of doing that.
