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 Chen Duxiu's Youth magazine (later renamed as New Youth) and the promotion of the vernacular movement, the ideas of freedom and resistance to traditional authority affected students and ordinary citizens.
The New Culture Movement held high the banner of democracy and science, which inspired and influenced China people, especially young people in China, in the ideological and cultural fields, and fundamentally laid the ideological foundation and intellectual source for the emergence of the May 4th Movement.
The development of mass organizations in the Republic of China, including young chinese Society, Industrial Society, Xinmin Society, Xinchao Society, Civilian Education Lecture Group, Work-study Mutual Aid Group, etc., laid an organizational foundation for the May 4th Movement to be carried out throughout the country.

German Foreign Minister Mueller and others signed on behalf of Germany.
The Versailles Peace Treaty 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 China Jiaozhou Bay, Jiaoji Railway and Shandong before the war.
Japan actually asked and agreed to transfer Germany's rights and interests of aggression against China to Japan, and it 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 Japan's aggression against China and expressed its support for China's proposition.
After that, Japan threatened to refuse to sign and withdraw from the peace treaty, forcing 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 Versailles Peace Treaty.
The imperialist powers also secretly drew up plans for armed intervention and economic blockade against the Soviet Union and Russia.
