C. Self-determination

The principle of self-determination was one of the key features of Woodrow Wilson's 14 Points, which he outlined as ways to bring The Great War (World War I) to an end and work toward a peaceful world. The intention to give people's the right to determine and control their own governments was embedded in sevedral of Wilson's points, such as:

Point #9. Readjustment of the borders of Italy "along clearly recognizable lines of nationality."

Point #10. Austria-Hungary retain a place among the nations, but the peoples of Austria-Hungary should be granted the accorded for independence if they so choose.

Point #12. Turkey shall remain as its own country, but other nationalities under the Ottoman Empire "should be assured an undoubted security of life" and "opportunity of autonomous development."

The "opportunity of autonomous development" (self-determination) wasn't exactly implemented everywhere as Wilson hoped. The "Mandate system" mentioned in the question options was a way in which European powers were entrusted to govern regions that were not deemed ready yet to govern themselves -- such as in former imperial holdings of Germany and the Ottoman Empire.

I need three reasons on why America invaded Canada in 1812
choli [55]

1) Many Americans believed the invasion would be a cakewalk, particularly since Britain was so distracted by the Napoleonic Wars in Europe.

2) War Plan Red first set out a description of Canada's geography, military resources, and transportation, and went on to evaluate a series of possible pre-emptive American campaigns to invade Canada in several areas and occupy key ports and railways before British troops could provide reinforcement to the Canadians

3) United States would be less likely to attack Canada if it were a self-governing country rather than separate colonies of Britain. The fear of the United States helped to strengthen the call for Confederation.

What was general douglas macarthur's reaction to president harry truman's insistence on a limited war?
Sav [38]
Criticism and disobedience--MacArthur actively ignored Truman and was known to criticize his ability as "Commander and Chief".

Truman wanted a careful war in Korea not wanting to provoke China or the USSR. Aggressive moves by MacArthur will eventually bring China into the Korean War. Truman will fire MacArthur for not following orders. MacArthur supported the use of atomic bombs against China and wanted to use the full power of the US arsenal.
