Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Manchurian Crisis: It took a year to report, during which time the Japanese continued to expand into Manchuria. Sanctions were not used. A Special Assembly voted that Japan should withdraw from Manchuria. When the Japanese refused and left the League of Nations, the League responded by doing nothing.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Manchurian Crisis of 1931–33 demonstrated the futility of the 1920s-era agreements on peace, nonaggression and disarmament in the face of a power determined to march forward.

Detailed explanation-3: -The most important point here why the league took so long time to make a decision over Manchuria was because it was VERY POWERLESS. It’s very weak and even if it will make a decision, the Japanese won’t agree and it will be for nothing, because the Japanese’s power was much powerful than the whole League.

Detailed explanation-4: -On the advice of the report, the League of Nations refused to recognize Manchukuo as a legitimate state and proposed measures to reestablish the status quo. China accepted the League of Nations recommendations for restoring peace in the area; Japan did not and withdrew from the League in 1935.
