Wilson’s Plan for Peace
In January 1918, while the war was still raging, President Wilson had drawn up a series of peace proposals.
Known as the Fourteen Points, they outlined a plan for achieving a just and lasting peace.
The first four points included an end to secret treaties, freedom of the seas, free trade, and reduced national armies and navies.
The fifth goal was the adjustment of colonial claims with fairness toward colonial peoples.
The sixth through thirteenth points were specific suggestions for changing borders and creating new nations.
The guiding idea behind these points was self-determination.
This meant allowing people to decide for themselves under what government they wished to live.
Finally, the fourteenth point proposed a “general association of nations” that would protect “great and small states alike.”
This reflected Wilson’s hope for an organization that could peacefully negotiate solutions to world conflicts.
Why didn’t Russia take part in the Big Four negotiations?
The Allied Powers refused to recognize the new Bolshevik Government and thus did not invite its representatives to the Peace Conference.
How might self-determination in the Balkans have prevented the Outbreak of World War I?
Because if the people got to choose their government then there wouldn't be a group trying to overthrow the Austria - Hungary; they would have their own government.
