Detailed explanation-1: -Answer and Explanation: One of the main weaknesses of the League of Nations was that it had no army, so it could not enforce any of its edicts or sanctions. Another weakness was that the United States and Russia, two of the strongest countries, were not members.
Detailed explanation-2: -Appeasement in Europe allowed it to continue until finally, Germany’s behavior could no longer be tolerated. Therefore, the failure of the League of Nations was the primary cause of World War II because it led to a series of events that triggered German aggression, ultimately causing World War II.
