Answer:

Lafayette might have seen the extent to which slavery was practiced.

Explanation:

Marquis de Lafayette was a French military officer who commanded American troops during the America Revolutionary War, and returned back to France after the war.

On the invitation of President James Monroe and the United States Congress, Lafayette came back to the United States in 1824 to celebrate its upcoming 50th anniversary. During his visit, he was dissatisfied and disappointed when he found out that slavery existed in the parts of America that he visited; sights of slavery would have impelled him to make the statement.

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.
