But in 1500
Without navigation, we would — very literally — be lost at sea. Navigation made it possible for early civilizations to explore new lands, establish trade routes and eventually connect with people on the other side of the world. Navigation allowed fishermen to find their way home and trade vessels to sail safely to foreign ports. Today, navigation enables a global economy by guiding ships, airplanes and trucks around the world using accurate and reliable navigation technology.

Marine navigation has come a long way from navigating with stars to tracking the position of ships with satellites. Let’s dive into the intriguing history of navigation, examine the timeline and explore the marine navigation tools that brought us to where we are today

Schach [20]
His points covered three main things, self determination of colonies l, freedom of the seas and the League of Nations. His points failed because France and Britain wanted revenge against Germany so his points were turned down. The only point that made it was the 14th (the League of Nations). But this would eventually fall apart because US congress didn’t want America to be involved in foreign affairs so they didn’t join. Since America was the only super power coming out of the war and didn’t join the league the other countries couldn’t agree on anything.
