One of woodrow wilson’s most important goals after world war 1 was to establish a league of nations what was the main job of the league supposed to be? a) hold the nations of europe responsible for the death and destruction of world war 1 b) maintain the world economic system so that colonies would no longer be necessary c) make in unnecessary for the united states to involve itself in international disputes d) provide a way for countries to resolve disputes between them without going to war

when world war i broke out across europe in 1914, president woodrow wilson proclaimed the united states would remain neutral, and many americans supported this policy of nonintervention. however, public opinion about neutrality started to change after the sinking of the british ocean liner lusitania by a german u-boat in 1915; almost 2,000 people perished, including 128 americans. along with news of the zimmerman telegram threatening an alliance between germany and mexico, wilson asked congress for a declaration of war against germany. the u.s. officially entered the conflict on april 6, 1917.
