Detailed explanation-1: -The League of Nations (French: Société des Nations [sɔsjete de nɑsjɔ̃]) was the first worldwide intergovernmental organisation whose principal mission was to maintain world peace. It was founded on 10 January 1920 by the Paris Peace Conference that ended the First World War.
Detailed explanation-2: -The League of Nations (1920 – 1946) was the first intergovernmental organization established “to promote international cooperation and to achieve international peace and security”.
Detailed explanation-3: -The League of Nations effectively resolved some international conflicts but failed to prevent the outbreak of the Second World War.
Detailed explanation-4: -The failures of the League in the 1930s were not only because of aggressor nations undermining its authority, but also down to its own members. Britain and France, the two most influential members, ignored the League in their efforts to appease Hitler-actions that arguably led to the outbreak of the Second World War.
Detailed explanation-5: -The League was formally disbanded on April 19, 1946; its powers and functions had been transferred to the nascent United Nations.
