Would Britain and France intervene against a restored German monarchy?

Would the Versailles settlement lead Britain and France to oppose Wilhelm III's restoration by force in 1928?

Intervention is disputed. The discussion weighs opposition to restoration against a preference for German stability, reparations income, and the outside support needed to restore the monarchy.

A participant challenges the restoration scenario by asking whether Versailles had explicitly removed the German monarchy. The conversation accepts that premise and turns to whether Britain and France would actually fight over Wilhelm III's accession; it does not examine the treaty text. The date is fixed at 1 January 1928, before the Wall Street crash. Clarke argues that a successful restoration would probably already require outside support and suggests Britain might prefer stability to revolutionary or nationalist disorder. Another participant sees a French interest in keeping Germany divided, while the reply points to France's need for German reparations. French governmental instability is offered as another obstacle to intervention, leaving the outcome dependent on foreign policy choices.
