Answer:

1) The rise of isolationism in the Congress

Step-by-step explanation:

Despite American President Woodrow Wilson efforts to join the League of Nations (an organization for international cooperation) and get the U.S. involved in other international alliances, Congress refused to support Wilson's ideals and instead, aimed at focusing on domestic issues and adopt an isolationist policy: It refused to join the League of Nations, renounced to its alliance with Europe, imposed restriction to limit immigration, and passed legislation supporting business growth and industrial expansion. This all indicated the rise of isolationism in the U.S. Congress.
