Respuesta :

The correct answer for 1 is B form a league of nations

The league of nations was an organization that was supposed to be like the United Nations. All countries were supposed to work together on preserving world peace but the idea didn't work because it didn't have the support from major powers like the United States where the congress wouldn't ratify the treaty.

The correct answer for 2 is 
B to divide Germany into several smaller parts so it would not be a threat 

There were numerous territories that were a part of the German empire that had their own ethnic groups and that wanted independence so a large part of the fourteen points was on how to divide the territories and take them away from Germany and help them with establishing independent and democratic sovereign governments.

The correct answer for 3 is 
b Germany was blamed for the war and severely weakened

There were numerous ways in which Germans considered themselves to be humiliated. For starters, they couldn't even negotiate the treaty, they could just accept what was ordered or suffer destruction. Numerous other policies ruined them economically so they had to be poor for a long time which was also humiliating.

The correct answer for 4 is 
B He thought the United States should stay out of world affairs

He believed that the league of nations part where all countries fight against things oppressors would be burdensome for America and Americans and erode the power of the congress in favor of the power of the President which led to numerous policies of supporting isolationism and keeping America out of world affairs.
