Alassane Ouattara vs Vittorio Orlando

Ouattara was appointed Prime Minister by President F

Ouattara was barred from running for president due to a nationality law requiring both parents to be Ivorian. His exclusion fueled political tensions and contributed to the country's instability and civil war.

Ouattara won the presidential election against incumbent Laurent Gbagbo, but Gbagbo refused to step down. The disputed result led to a five-month civil war, ending with Ouattara assuming office after Gbagbo's arrest.

Ouattara won a second term with 83.7% of the vote in an election deemed peaceful and credible by observers. His victory reflected support for his economic recovery policies and post-war reconciliation efforts.

Ouattara announced he would run for a third term after the death of his chosen successor, sparking opposition protests and violence. The election was boycotted by the opposition, and Ouattara won with 94% of the vote.

Orlando represented Italy at the Paris Peace Conference as prime minister. He demanded the fulfillment of the Treaty of London, including Fiume and Dalmatia. President Wilson opposed these claims, leading to Orlando's walkout and eventual resignation in June 1919.

Orlando's successor signed the treaty that formally ended WWI with Austria. Italy gained Trentino, South Tyrol, and Istria, but not Fiume or Dalmatia. The perceived 'mutilated victory' fueled nationalist resentment and contributed to the rise of Fascism.
