Fourteen Points

Wilson gave his Fourteen Points Address to Congress in 1917 before even entering the war. The Fourteen Points laid out Wilson's  goals for peace after the war. Six major points were...
  • The main points were abolishing secret treaties
  • Freedom of the seas
  • Removal of economic barriers between nations
  • Reduction of national armaments
  • Self-determination so nations would choose their government for themselves
  • The League of Nations to settle international disputes peacefully. This was his most wanted point, but this point was rejected by Americans because the U.S wanted to stay away from foreign affairs.
