    Based on Wilson's public declarations the United States was entering the war because in August 1914, President Woodrow Wilson asked Americans to remain impartial in thought and deed toward the war that had just broken out in Europe. Wilson wanted the United States to exemplify the democratic commitment to peace, but "The Great War" continually challenged the nation's neutrality. American farms and factories fed and armed Europe's armies; both the Allied and Central powers violated international laws governing ocean travel and shipping. For almost three years, the President presided over difficult, deteriorating neutrality, until finally the provocations could no longer be ignored or negotiated. In this lesson, students will analyze one of the most significant moments in twentieth century U.S. foreign relations: Wilson's decision to enter World War I in order to make the world "safe for democracy."…

    In Woodrow Wilson’s address, he expressed two main American interests which were to make the world safe for democracy and to help countries become independent. However, he did not express all of the United States’ wants. One interest that was not expressed was that the U.S. wanted revenge for the people and the property lost. Another interest that wasn’t shown was the fact of America wanting to be “imperialistic” instead of spreading democracy. In reality, America wanted to have authority over other countries and this would have been achieved by winning a war.…

    In 1918, the first world war comes to an end as Woodrow Wilson, the 28th president of the United States, announces his 14 points that will reform the government and the way it treats other countries. Wilson establishes that the United States will stay peaceful and help other countries to a high extent, which makes them a dependable ally. With his 14 points, Wilson is creating an even playing ground for the United States in order to stay neutral, with no potential conflicts. Wilson’s points work to drastically adjust the relationships between the powers of the world from cold to warm and peaceful, as he depends upon peace with countries helping each other in times of despair. He hopes for the points to become concreted within the…

    In his monograph, Woodrow Wilson, Arthur S. Link discusses the President of the United States' influence on the world, his choices during his time in office, and the effect of his life on the world today. Link argues that Wilson shaped the way World War I played out in three important ways. First, Wilson advocated for peace and avoidance of interference in international conflicts. Second, he believed strongly in keeping the nation secure and keep the war handled fairly with the principle of neutrality firmly in mind. Although he fought at length to avoid involvement in World War I, Wilson decided to enter the war based on his ideas for neutrality and to bring the war to a close. Finally, Link argues that because Woodrow Wilson maintained a strong sense of peace and security for the American people, the actions of the president on behalf of the people and the country at that time were well justified. Using the writings of Woodrow Wilson himself and the correspondences of those he kept in touch with, Link finds evidence enough for his claims.…

    Internal terrorism has been an ugly scene in India probably for as long as we have known. The independence war saw the nation split into two parts which led to not only blood shed but left a scar across the hearts of many. People who were living together were made to separate and more importantly ideologies were imposed and the immediate next generation exposed to hatred of the worst kinds. India then got involved in the problems of the eastern part of pakistan and freed bangladesh. What it brought about was another wave of resentment and more people added to the list of intolerants. The eastern states were not stranger to the problem of maosits, cry for gorkhaland and more!…

    India's divisive political culture, in which numerous parties, showing little or no spirit of cooperation, constantly battle each other for regional or national power, that has played a considerable part in allowing terrorism to breed. In India, it is still possible to approach counter-terrorism very casually and allow it to be diverted to byways that lead to dead ends. This is because national security has yet to carve out a…
