Answer 1

The correct answer is **b. Did not want to be pulled into another war.**Following World War I, a strong sentiment of isolationism emerged in the United States. Many Americans believed that joining the League of Nations, which was designed to promote international cooperation and prevent future conflicts, would entangle the country in European affairs and potentially drag them into another devastating war. They preferred a return to a more detached foreign policy, focusing on domestic issues.
