The correct statement is "It was assumed World War I would be the last war."
World War I is commonly referred to the "The war to end all wars." This war between a significant amount of countries was supposed to be one that would end warfare among competing nations. Americans hoped that this would be the case and preferred the US government to develop a policy of isolationism after the war. This is event from the US Congress's vote to not join the League of Nations after World War I.
Explanation:
The Battle of Baltimore was a sea/land battle fought between British invaders and American defenders in the War of 1812. American forces repulsed sea and land invasions off the busy port city of Baltimore, Maryland, and killed the commander of the invading British forces. The British and Americans first met at the Battle of North Point.[9] Though the Americans retreated, the battle was a successful delaying action that inflicted heavy casualties on the British, halted their advance and, consequently, allowed the defenders at Baltimore to properly prepare for an attack.
