Woodrow Wilson (President)

Woodrow Wilson was the 28th President of the United States, serving from 1913 to 1921. He is best known for leading the nation through World War I and promoting the idea of global cooperation, which he outlined in his Fourteen Points. Wilson's vision led to the establishment of the League of Nations, an early effort to foster international peace. Domestically, he implemented progressive reforms, including the Federal Reserve Act, which reformed banking. However, his presidency was also marked by controversial racial policies. He won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1919 for his efforts in promoting peace and diplomacy.
