FDR's first major act as president was the Emergency Banking Act. Passed just  5 days after his inauguration, FDR did this in hopes of stabilizing the banking industry. At this time in the US, the Great Depression was in full swing and banks were struggling. This is because so many people were trying to take out their money from the banks that thousands of banks all over the country were forced to close due to lack of paper currency.

With the Emergency Banking Act, FDR declares a "bank holiday." This 4 day period allowed the federal government to start reorganizing the banks and to provide currency to those banks who needed it.

<em>D. Restore dignity and independence to those countries.</em>

Explanation:

When the United States joined World War I on the side of the Allies, they didn't necessarily want to. President Woodrow Wilson was a pacifist, he strived for peace. He was against having the United States join a war, as he cared for his people and the country. After the Zimmerman Telegram, Wilson was left with no choice but to declare war.

Even during the war, Woodrow Wilson's peaceful approaches shined through. His main goal was to create peace, not only for the United States but for everyone. He wrote the Fourteen Points, which was an outline for peace on all sides.

The Fourteen Points were goals that were striving towards peace. Woodrow Wilson wanted German troops to be removed from lands like Belgium, so they could become independent and restore dignity to those countries. Not all people agreed with Wilson's approach, many thought Germany should have harsher repercussions after the war.
