What was President Wilson's plan for peace?

President Wilson's plan for peace after WWI was outlined in the Fourteen Points. According to the United States Department of State, the Fourteen Points were improved by later decrees.

• Free trade between peaceful countries.
• Fair colonial claims over land and regions.
• Russia will have its own government without German involvement.
• German troops will also evacuate Belgium, and Belgium will be free.
• France will regain control over its land, including Alsace-Lorraine.
• Establish the borders of Italy so that all Italians will be within the country.
• Austria-Hungary will be an independent country.
• Central Powers will evacuate Serbia, Montenegro and Romania, and they will be independent countries.
• The Turks will have their own empire.
• Poland will be an independent country.
