Historical reasons

In the late Qing Dynasty, especially after the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, innovative ideas were introduced into China, a new youth, and influenced the younger generation. In the early years of the Republic of China, with the development of Youth magazine founded by Chen Duxiu (later renamed as New Youth) and the popularization of the vernacular movement, the thought of freedom and resistance to traditional authority influenced students and ordinary citizens.

The New Culture Movement held high the banner of democracy and science, inspired and influenced the people of China, especially the youth of China, in the ideological and cultural fields, and fundamentally laid the ideological foundation and intellectual source of the May 4th Movement.

The development of mass organizations during the Republic of China included young chinese Society, Industrial Society, Xinmin Society, Xinchao Society, Civilian Education Lecture Group and Work-study Mutual Aid Group. It laid an organizational foundation for the May Fourth Movement to be carried out throughout the country.

Results of the Paris Peace Conference

German Foreign Minister Mueller and others signed on behalf of Germany.

The peace treaty of Versailles with Germany was established, and the peace treaty with the German allies was signed separately after the Paris Peace Conference.

At the request of the people of China, the China delegation proposed to the Peace Conference to recover all the rights of German occupation of Jiaozhou Bay in China, Ji Jiao Railway and Shandong before the war.

Japan actually requested and agreed to transfer Germany's rights and interests of aggression against China to Japan, which was supported by Britain and France.

Due to the contradiction between the United States and Japan in the Pacific Ocean and the Far East, the United States was initially wary of Japanese aggression against China and expressed its support for China's proposition.

After the Japanese threatened to refuse to sign the peace treaty and withdraw from the peace conference, it forced the United States to finally give up its support for China.

Under the impact of the May 4th Movement, the China delegation had to refuse to sign the Treaty of Versailles.
