The historical context of this speech in relation to World War II would be that Roosevelt was trying to to show that the Fascist regimes that were popping up in places like Germany and Italy had no place in a modern world, since he advocated that people in all nations should have certain freedoms such as the freedom of religion, speech, etc.
