Why would Wilson consider a war against Germany to be a war for democracy?

US President Woodrow Wilson, saw the main World War One allies, France and England to be "democratic" nations, even if there were some flaws in how their governments operated. Clearly, not all of the allies had the democratic freedoms of the US. With that said, the main enemy, Germany, was a monarchy run by the Kaiser. There were few democratic features in Germany's government, and with other nations allied with Germany. With that said, it was easy for Wilson to connect the dots and see the war as one where democratic nations were in conflict with non-democratic ones.As an aside, the US has never fought a war against a democratic nation.
