President wilson’s fourteen points were largely unsuccessful in bringing about lasting peace because the league of nations had a strong rivalry between its members. the allies were more concerned with punishment and restitution than with peace. germany refused to accept any agreement based on the fourteen points. european countries could no longer use secret agreements to settle disputes.

President Wilson's Fourteen Points were largely unsessful in bringing about lasting peace because the Allies were more concerned about punishment and restitution than with peace.

For example, France wanted to punish Germany for the high number of casualties that resulted from the war and rebuild France. Also, the British wanted to punish Germany because they were apparently the sole cause of the war. Even though Wilson's Fourteen Points didn't really succeed, because they didn't prevent World War II from occuring, many of his points were largely implemented after the war.
