President Wilson had a 14-point peace plan, including the creation of a League of Nations. He hoped the League would guarantee the peace, but in the final Treaty of Versailles, the victors of the war insisted on harsh punishment. Even the United States did not support the League of Nations. Today, most Americans accept the United States taking an active role in the world, but at that time they believed otherwise. After the war, the United States had problems with racial tension, struggling farms and labor unrest. After Russia's revolution in 1917, Americans feared the spread of communism. This period is often known as the Red Scare.
威爾遜總統(tǒng)制定14點和平計劃,包括建立一個國際聯(lián)盟。他希望聯(lián)盟將保證和平,但最終在凡爾賽條約 ,戰(zhàn)爭的勝利者堅持嚴厲的懲罰。即使美國不支持的國際聯(lián)盟。今天,大多數(shù)美國人接受美國在世界上的積極作用,但當時他們不那么認為。戰(zhàn)爭結(jié)束后,美國出現(xiàn)種族關(guān)系緊張的問題,對抗農(nóng)場,和勞工動亂。俄羅斯在1917年革命之后,美國人害怕共產(chǎn)主義的傳播。這一時期通常被稱為紅色恐怖。
