Explanation :
Woodrow Wilson's primary goal at the Paris Peace Conference was the creation of a League of Nations to mediate future disputes and promote international cooperation and peace. He believed that the League would be able to prevent future destructive conflicts like World War I. While other goals, such as reparations and demilitarization, were also important to Wilson, the League of Nations was the centerpiece of his vision for a new world order.
