The Federal Trade Commission Act (1914) established the Federal Trade Commission. The Act, signed by Woodrow Wilson in 1914, outlawed unfair methods of competition and outlaws unfair acts or practices that affect commerce.

A.K.A It was a protection against bigger business for the smaller businesses. During the time it was enforced, bigger businesses were known for scaring smaller owners and forcing them to give up their businesses all together -as a way to get rid of competition- FTC was made so that they couldn't do that and if they did there would be consequences.

Hope this helps!

Foreign policy issues between 1817-1823 and the results of each
Vladimir [108]
Settling Disputes with Great Britain The Treaty of Ghent ended the War of 1812, yet there were issues left unresolved. The United States and British Canada both wanted to keep their navies and fishing rights on the Great Lakes. In the spring of 1817, the two sides compromised by establishing the Rush-Bagot Agreement, which limited naval power on the Great Lakes for both the United States and British Canada. Another treaty with Britain gave the United States fishing rights off parts of the Newfoundland and Labrador coasts. This treaty, known as the Convention of 1818, also set the border between the United States and Canada at 49°N latitude as far west as the Rocky Mountains. Interest in the valuable fur trade in the Oregon Country was another issue resolved by this treaty. Both countries agreed to occupy the Pacific Northwest together, an agreement that would be tested in the years to come. United States Gains Florida The United States also had a dispute over its southern border with Spanish Florida. In 1818 Secretary of State John Quincy Adams, son of John and Abigail Adams, held talks with Spanish diplomat Luis de Ons about letting Americans settle in Florida. Meanwhile, President James Monroe, elected in 1816, had sent U.S. troops to secure the U.S.– Florida border. General Andrew Jackson led these soldiers. At the same time, conflicts arose between the United States and the Seminole Indians of Florida. The Seminole often helped runaway slaves and sometimes raided U.S. settlements. In April 1818 Jackson’s troops invaded Florida to capture Seminole raiders. This act began the First Seminole War. During the war Jackson took over most of Spain’s important military posts. Then he overthrew the governor of Florida. He carried out these acts against Spain without receiving direct orders from President Monroe. Jackson’s actions upset Spanish leaders. Most Americans, however, supported Jackson. Jackson’s presence in Florida convinced Spanish leaders to negotiate. In 1819 the two countries signed the Adams-Ons Treaty, which settled all border disputes between Spain and the United States. Under this treaty, Spain gave East Florida to the United States.
