Woodrow Wilson was the 28th president of the United States, serving two terms from 1913 to 1921. He is best known as a scholar, statesman, and leader who brought significant progressive reforms domestically and led the U.S. through World War I. Wilson created the League of Nations and won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1919 for his international peace efforts. His presidency saw the passage of the Nineteenth Amendment granting women's suffrage, child labor laws, and the establishment of the Federal Reserve System. However, his legacy is also marked by racial segregation policies and a paralytic stroke late in his presidency, which diminished his capacity to govern.
