Ava's AP American Blog: LAD #31

Woodrow Wilson created a list that he thought could make world peace happen. He suggests this as their plan, and says they should all stick together. It emphasized American morals and peace for the world. It also helped create peace in foreign countries following the end of the war...
  1. no secret diplomacy 
  2. freedom of the waters
  3. diminish economic barriers for everyone
  4. limitations of weapons
  5. self-determination of colonies (no greed)
  6. No americans in Russia
  7. Belgium to be free
  8. Give the French their land bank
  9. boundaries in Italy based on nationality 
  10. Austria-Hungary set free
  11. people out of Rumania, Serbia, and Montenegro
  12. the "Turks" given freedom
  13. Poland
  14. establishment of the league of nations



George Washington's Farewell Address advised us to stay out of foreign affairs and to keep peace with all... Woodrow Wilson is extending this idea with his 14 points.
