The correct answer is A) They pressured the United States to take sides.
Great Britain and France were both heavily involved in colonizing the North American continent during the 17th and 18th centuries. Once France and England both had a strong foothold in North America, they made the citizens pick sides when fighting. A perfect example of this was the French and Indian War (1754-1763).
When America became independent (1776) the hope was that the US could avoid this past experience of being involved in the affairs of these two countries. However, this was not the case. Great Britain and France both got the US involved in their fighting. The US ended up having problems with both France and Great Britain as seen in the XYZ Affair, Citizen Genet Affair, etc.

Absolute chaos is what we would define as anarchy; it is essentially the reverse of order. What makes an anarchy worse would be the shocking lack of a robust legal system because there can be no laws in a society built on complete chaos, but if you're talking about a government based on anarchy, it would be a system where there is no state identity and no real central government. Somalia, to some extent, serves as the most prevalent illustration of why a government founded on anarchy is a horrible concept. Although there is a central government, its power over its territory varies. Certain sections are under the influence of the militant group Al Shabab, and the Somaliland region is attempting to declare its independence from the federal government. The country is rife with a milder but no less deadly type of anarchy due to the absence of a strong central leadership.
Anarchic societies where every individual is equally empowered are unsustainable. The individuals quickly cluster into tribal units, and without some overriding authority, it’s impossible to stop that from happening. The tribal units (or gangs, if you prefer) are run by warlords who keep each other in check until one of them gains a decisive advantage over the others, and then you’ve got the beginnings of a state.
This drama has played out countless times in the course of human history, and is still playing out in the criminal underworld to the extent that it can. That extent is limited by the fact that now there is an overriding authority with enforceable power, the legitimate state.

From what i can actually read it look to be correct.
The correct answer is C) a nation seeking support and protection from other nations."
The option that would have benefited most from the implementation of Wilson’s Fourteen Points is "a nation seeking support and protection from other nations."
At the end of World War 1, US President Woodrow Wilson had a real interest in the total pacification of western Europe after so much conflict and destruction. The economic interests of the United States were also at risk. So on January 8, 1918, he addressed Congress to develop 14 points that he considered would allow for long-lasting peace in Europe. The speech is known as the "14 Points Speech." Among the most important points were the free navigation of the seas, the establishment of fair trade conditions between the countries, and the evacuation of Montenegro, Serbia, and Romania.
