Trivia: Theodore Roosevelt achieved which of these accolades?

Nobel Peace Prize
First TIME Man of the Year
The correct answer is Nobel Peace Prize
So why is this answer correct? : Theodore Roosevelt was not just the first American President to win the Nobel Peace Prize — he was the first statesman of any kind to win the award. Roosevelt was honored in 1906 in recognition of “his role in bringing to an end the bloody war recently waged between two of the world’s great powers, Japan and Russia.” The Russo-Japanese war took place between 1904 and 1905, and Roosevelt helped mediate the end of the conflict.
