In 1912, the government of the United States was led by President William Howard Taft, a Republican who had been in office since 1909. The Democratic Party, under the leadership of Woodrow Wilson, was gaining momentum, and the Progressive Party, founded by former President Theodore Roosevelt, was also emerging as a significant political force. This year was notable for the presidential election, which ultimately saw Wilson win in November. The political landscape was characterized by a shift towards progressive reforms and increasing competition among the major parties.
