Nicholas Natale As World War I came to an end, a generation had been lost throughout the world. In order for this atrocity to never happen again, President Woodrow Wilson created the Fourteen Points. He hoped it would be ?the war to end all wars.? Although the Treaty of Versailles incorporated many of his ideas, the President could not have the treaty ratified by Congress because of the Fourteenth Point. The League of Nations, which was to be an international organization for collective security, was Wilson?s dream. Although the liberal and conservative opposition forces challenged the League of Nations, it was President Wilson?s stubbornness that led to the total defeat of the Treaty of Versailles.

Explain the major causes of the Russian Revolution of 1917 It took ?three centuries to build? the Russian Government, ?and three days for it to vanish. Although the Russian monarchy was toppled, the regime was untouched. There were years of tension that lead to the Russian Revolution. Some were long term causes and some were immediate causes. The causes include the oppression of Serfs, the agricultural economy, strikes and riots, the losses of World War I, the failures of imperialism, and Bloody Sunday. The stubborn autocracy of the Czars made it impossible for any change. Sadly, the only way for everlasting reform to be brought to Russia was the shedding of blood.

Maddie Faulis Mr. Nelson AP US History Many events related to the election of 1824?influenced the election of 1828. Andrew Jackson argued that Adams was part of a ?Corrupt Bargain? with Henry Clay due to the fact that Adams agreed to make Clay Secretary of State if Clay voted him as president. As a result, the next president would not be chosen in secret and nasty, mud-slinging politics would begin.
