Question

What are the five main ideas of Wilson's 14 points? How well did Wilson's 14 points do in the Treaty of Versailles? What will be the ultimate outcome of the treaty?

Answer 1

Answer: Formation of the League of Nations, decolonization, removal of all economic barriers, the public conclusion of peace treaties, and the reduction of national armaments.

Explanation:

These were elementary fragments of the 14-point agreement. President Wilson and his associates sought to implement the above points. Yet, they were not successful in these endeavors. The countries that won the war were focused on collecting war reparations. So Wilson withdrew from the negotiations but was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts. Germany was declared the main culprit for the war. All the colonies were taken from Germany and had to pay huge war damages. Such conditions of peace will contribute to the strengthening of extreme nationalism in Germany and help Hitler come to power.
