The league of nations failed because it…

Weak The League did not have any real power. Apart from shame, sanctions didn’t work and it did not have it’s own army.

America The strongest nation after the First World War never joined.

Structure The League’s organisation was disorganised so it took a long time to do anything. Members couldn’t agree but decisions had to be unanimous.

Depression World-wide depression causes countries to look for more land and power. Countries were more worried about themselves and not world peace.

Unsuccessful The more the League failed the more people mistrusted it. In the end countries just ignored it.

Members The League’s main members let it down.

Big bullies The League showed it could deal with smaller countries in the 1920s. However when powerful countries like Germany, Italy and Japan defied the League the League was too weak to stop them

TASK: Find an example to support each of these reasons.
