Which nations were members of the "Big Four" allied powers of World War I?

Darren Marsden , How do you know when a politician is lying? His mouth is moving.

???? - the joke here in England when someone switches opinions/sides quickly is “you must be Italian “ lol - the Italians during the war were certainly not allies to be dependent upon. No offence Italy - history is History- please bear in mind my learned friends that Italy and Italians are beautiful and the question is political and politicians are not beautiful (in the dependable sense)

Canada came into its own in WWI with Vimy Ridge.

Never heard it called the "Big Four" before. It was always called the "Entente" when I was in school.

CuckooAnge, WWI, not II

It's just a pity the USA took so long to be one of the Big Four

Misread it thought it said World War II. Was wondering why Italy was included with the others.

I've always heard that Italy was a ali of Germany.

ChampionNymph37634, Fascism under Mussolini

CuckooAnge, World War One . Wrong war , read the question

ChampionNymph37634, Mussolini

the French were determined that Germany would pay the cost of the first world war which Germany finally paidit all just a year ago 2019 also the French treated the Germans appallingly after that war ended they went on horseback onto pavements and the people had to jump aside these details never come up

ChampionNymph37634, The Germans treated them like 4th class steerage passengers. They never even thought of them as equals. The Italians also decided, Fascism was Not What they wanted for their country.

What led to Italy switching sides in time for W.W. II? Any comments?

Era Vulgaris, indeed it's much better to do capital punishment on the importabt people of government than get them to pay some sort of fine using government money

i think the answer once again left out canada. Vimy Ridge was pretty much won by them.

beebee, And racists - clever woman!

SAC69, it's mainly their way of dealing with obtrusive government: tell them what they want to hear, they'll go away and you can go on about your business. This is how 'communism' was handled, for the most part.

Lizzi, life goes on

Darren Marsden , they weren't allies in world war ll crossed over to the other side! thank god you had our Aussie diggers !

That’s actually a tad misleading as Italy were actually members of the Axis power to start with before switching sides.
