Until in April 2, 1917 I ask to declare war on Germany. they sunk four Americans ships. i mobilized my industry and had 4 million men in the army. i gave command to general john j. preshing to attack Germany.

League Of Nations
After World War 1, I knew I couldn’t allow something like that to happen again, so I formed an international organization called the League of Nations. The League had one sole purpose, to ensure that war never broke out again. More specifically, the purpose of this league was to maintain peace.
Luckily, the support I received for this task was amazing after World War II ended, I was not alone in wanting to ensure that nothing like this ever happened again. After careful consideration, I decided to base this league in Geneva, Switzerland. Most people could not dispute this because Switzerland had not fought in World War I and remained a neutral country. Not only that, but the Red Cross was based in Switzerland.
We had many succeses throughout the duration of this league. Our system for disputes was quite basic. There were three main ways that we could deal with disputes. Firstly, we could call the two places who were having a disupte to come and discuss the matter peacefully to reach a decision. If things became too ‘intense’, a verbal warning would be used. The second process that we use is scaring the country into agreeing with the decision that the league had made by introducing financial threats to the country. The third method that we sometimes used, but preferred not to is to use forces and physical actions to force the country to agreeing with the council.
Unfortunately, I was unable to convince America to join this league which was quite ironic as I was the one who had the idea for this league. This was mainly due to my health, which was quite poor at the time. I did not have the energy to convince Americans to join this league of nations. America not joining however was a serious blow to the league at the time, which was unfortunate. This is because at the time, we were the most powerful nation.

Introduction Post
My name is Woodrow Wilson and I was born in Virginia in 1856. I graduated from Princeton and the University of Virginia Law School. Then, after that, I got a doctorate at Johns Hopkins University. In 1885, I married my first wife, Ellen Louise Axson.
After awhile, I became the president of the school that I graduated from, Princeton. Then, I was nominated for President during the 1912 Democratic Convention and I campaigned on the New Freedom (a program).
In a the election, I only received 42 percent of the popular vote. However, I got an amazing electoral vote which allowed me to win.
At one point, I made a national tour to mobilize public sentiment for the treaty. Unfortunately, I got exhausted from the tour and died from a stroke. I was nursed by my second wife, Edith Bolling Galt, I lived until 1924.
