Answer:
By January 1776, the American colonies were in open rebellion against Britain. Their soldiers had captured Fort Ticonderoga, besieged Boston, fortified New York City, and invaded Canada. Yet few dared voice what most knew was true — they were no longer fighting for their rights as British subjects. They weren’t fighting for self-defense, or protection of their property, or to force Britain to the negotiating table. They were fighting for independence. It took a hard jolt to move Americans from professed loyalty to declared rebellion, and it came in large part from Thomas Paine’s Common Sense. Not a dumbed-down rant for the masses, as often described, Common Sense is a masterful piece of argument and rhetoric that proved the power of words. Thomas Paine was a firebrand, and his most influential essay — Common Sense — was a fevered no-holds-barred call for independence. He is credited with turning the tide of public opinion at a crucial juncture, convincing many Americans that war for independence was the only option to take, and they had to take it now, or else.Thomas Paine’s Common Sense appeared as a pamphlet for sale in Philadelphia on January 10, 1776, and, as we say today, it went viral. The first printing sold out in two weeks and over 150,000 copies were sold throughout America and Europe. It is estimated that one fifth of Americans read the pamphlet or heard it read aloud in public. General Washington ordered it read to his troops. Within weeks, it seemed, reconciliation with Britain had gone from an honorable goal to a cowardly betrayal, while independence became the rallying cry of united Patriots

The correct answer is D) revenge.
President Wilson's 14 point peace plan based on democracy, self-determination, and collective security was rejected at the Paris Peace Conference because Europe wanted revenge.
United States President Woodrow Wilson believed that the implementation of its “14 points” would make the world safe for democracy.
When President Woodrow Wilson addressed the Congres of the United States on January 18, 1918, he elaborated 14 points with his ideas after the conclusion of World War I.
However, allied powers such as France and Great Britain did not really want a long-lasting peace in Europe. These countries wanted revenge and force Germany to pay for war reparations. France and England accused Germany of all the pain and destruction created during the war.
