Analyze the excerpt below from Woodrow Wilson, War Message to Congress (1917). Let us be very clear, and make very clear to all

the world what our motives and our objects are. Our object is to vindicate the principles of peace and justice in the life of the world as against selfish and autocratic power and to set up amongst the really free and self-governed peoples of the world such a concert of purpose and of action as will henceforth ensure the observance of those principles. The menace to peace and freedom lies in the existence of autocratic governments backed by organized force which is controlled wholly by their will, not by the will of their people. A steadfast concert for peace can never be maintained except by a partnership of democratic nations. No autocratic government could be trusted to keep faith within it or observe its covenants.Only free peoples can hold their purpose and their honour steady to a common end and prefer the interests of mankind to any narrow interest of their own.What does Wilson think is the greatest threat to freedom in the world? Select the quotation from the excerpt where he describes this danger.

Answer:

**in the existence of autocratic governments backed by an organized force that is totally controlled by their will, not by the will of their people.**

Explanation:

An autocratic government has an illegitimate power base, since it is not elected by the power of the people as a linclon indication if it is not taken by force and held in terror against the people, the autocratic government, inhibits the basic human rights of man and does not allow the freedoms of people's power to be expensed or given.

Look at the map

The correct answer is A. The map illustrates the countries occupied by Germany during World War II.

In addition to the German territory during the Weimar Republic, the new Reich came to include, in the years preceding the Second World War, areas with Germanic ethnic populations such as Saarland, Austria (after the Anschluss is renamed Ostmark), Sudetes (Crisis of the Sudeten) and the territory of Memel. Regions acquired after the outbreak of World War II include Eupen and Malmédy (taken from Belgium), Alsace-Lorraine (taken from France), Danzig and various territories in central and northern Poland. In addition, from 1939 to 1945, the Third Reich annexed the Czech territory of the Czechoslovak Republic giving it the name of Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia as a subjugated territory. Although this protectorate was considered a part of the "Greater Germany", it maintained its own currency and a commercial "internal border" with Germany.

Czech Silesia was incorporated in the province of Silesia in the same period. In 1942, the occupied Luxembourg was directly annexed as a province of Germany. The south and central regions of Poland were in charge of an occupation government called the General Government, although in a much less autonomous position than the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia, and with the persistent threat of totally "Germanizing" the territory and expelling the cities to the Polish population, with a view to total annexation in the future. At the end of 1943, after the surrender of the Kingdom of Italy, Germany was occupying Istria militarily and South Tyrol, which had been Austrian territory before 1918; although in this case there was no direct annexation, the Third Reich did not allow any control of this territory to the Italian Social Republic, and in fact these regions remained under German civil administration.
