1.How effective was the League of Nations as an international peacekeeping organization?

2.Do you think the League of Nations could have prevented the outbreak of the Second World War if the United States had joined?

3.How did Wilson's Fourteen Points influence the Treaty of Versailles ?

4.What were the strengths and weaknesses of Wilson's vision for the world AFTER the war?

1. It was not very successful, in part because Germany was treated more harshly than planned, and because the US was not even a part of the League.

2. This is your opinion. I would say yes because there would be extra help

3. Wilson subsequently used the Fourteen Points as the basis for negotiating the Treaty of Versailles that ended the war. Although the Treaty did not fully realize Wilson's unselfish vision, the Fourteen Points still stand as the most powerful expression of the idealist strain in United States diplomacy.

4. strengths

-  a plan for the breaking down of trade barriers between different countries. Wilson hoped that countries would remove barriers (like tariffs or embargoes) so that countries all over the world could trade goods.

- to grant sovereignty to nations like Austria-Hungary.

weaknesses

-the creation of the League of Nations. This was supposed to be an international peace keeping body. However, there was no way to enforce international peace, as countries were not necessarily forced to provide military assistance when asked by the League.

- to try to reduce the amount of military weapons/armaments for each country. This would rely on countries to voluntarily give up resources, which ended up being a wildly unpopular idea.
