Wilson's 14 points notes

After the First World War, Wilson has planned and drafted his own 14 points that he believes will be the world one step closer to world peace. However, it wasn't going to become a reality in anyway. From his trip to Europe, Wilson viewed many different interests from the European countries and knew his points were not going to be supported except the last point. In his 14 points, he established steps countries must take to in order to prevent a second world war and restore the countries losses. In his First point, he talks about open open diplomacy or his way of saying "peace without victory". It is obvious this wasn't going to be agreed among Europeans countries because they lost so many people and they want to gain something in return for winning, mostly from Great Britain and France. Wilson's second point was free navigation to the seas. This mostly likely wouldn't be supported by the British because they like to guard their surrounding seas. Third was to have economic balance between all countries. This would be a fail because then that meant Germany, the country that was powerful, will have equal economic balance with the countries they went to war with. Fourth was lowering the rearmaments of countries and not a lot liked this because they probably would worry about Germany breaking the point and rising to power again. Wilson had a fifth point where he just wanted to adjust the colonial claims off of countries, but it this probably seem to much power is being taken from Wilson or the U.S.. His sixth point is because the Russians abandoned some of their land, they used the land for making new countries. the other ones (points) only are about recovery, but the League of Nations if the last one, which in later years didn't turn out to become the formation Wilson's wished for.
