what was the goal of president woodrow wilsons fourteen points?

a. to create permanent world peace by outlawing war as a means of
solving conflicts

b. to eliminate the economic and political conditions in europe that
caused world war i

c. to create a world where future conflicts like world war i could be
prevented

d. to ensure that the central powers paid their fair share in
reparations to the allied powers

Explanation:

• Option A: The Fourteen Points didn't focus on outlawing war entirely. The Kellogg - Briand Pact was more about that. So A is incorrect.
• Option B: The Fourteen Points were not mainly about eliminating pre - WWI economic and political conditions in Europe. Their focus was broader on preventing future wars. So B is incorrect.
• Option C: Wilson's Fourteen Points aimed to establish a framework (like the League of Nations) to prevent future conflicts similar to WWI by promoting open diplomacy, free trade, disarmament, etc. This option aligns with the goal.
• Option D: Reparations were more of a focus in the Treaty of Versailles, not the Fourteen Points. So D is incorrect.

Answer:

C. To create a world where future conflicts like World War I could be prevented
