What peace plan did President Woodrow Wilson advocate after World War I?

• A. A League of Nations and 14 Points.
• B. A plan for immediate disarmament of all nations and no international organizations.
• C. A global tax system.
• D. A return to isolationism with no international cooperation.

Answer: (A)

The main idea being tested is Wilson’s vision for a postwar peace built on international cooperation and institutional security. He proposed a set of principles—the 14 Points—that urged open diplomacy, freedom of navigation, free trade, reductions in armaments, fair treatment and self-determination for peoples, and, most importantly, the creation of a League of Nations. The League would provide a forum where nations could settle disputes collectively and prevent future wars through cooperation and collective security, rather than unilateral action. This framework emphasizes building a lasting peace through international engagement and institutions, not through isolation or dismantling international engagement. It isn’t about disarming everyone and eliminating organizations, nor about a global tax system, nor about turning away from international cooperation.
