Detailed explanation-1: -The League failed to bring about disarmament and also to solve several problems. These failures included: Vilna, 1920, Russo-Polish War 1920-21, Greece vs. Turkey 1920-21, Memel 1923, the occupation of Ruhr 1923, Corfu Incident 1923. The League often failed to carry the self-determination policy out.
Detailed explanation-2: -Mussolini ignored the League’s orders to pull out of Corfu, and made Greece pay money to Italy. Disarmament talks failed, because Germany demanded as many weapons as everyone else.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Vilna incident in 1920 was ultimately a failure for the League of Nations. This resulted because Britain and France did not support the League of Nations on this issue. As a result, Poland was able to control Vilna until 1939, when World War 2 broke out.
Detailed explanation-4: -It was also quite successful in settling border disputes: settled a dispute between Sweden and Finland over the Aaland Islands. stopped a war between Greece and Bulgaria.
