Most of Wilson's Fourteen Points speech was meant to monitor the break-up of the Austro-Hungarian empire, setting general institutional laws, and guarantee that the U.S would only play a small role in the reconstruction process. Wilson saw self-determination as a valuable component of the successful completion of the divergent states after the war.
