Detailed explanation-1: -The League did not have military powers and this acted as a challenge when dealing with hostile countries. Sanctions were not applied properly since the member states did not work together and formed separate pact with aggressive countries, thereby making the presence of the League irrelevant.
Detailed explanation-2: -Why did the League of Nations fail? There had to be unanimity for decisions that were taken. Unanimity made it really hard for the League to do anything. The League suffered big time from the absence of major powers-Germany, Japan, Italy ultimately left-and the lack of U.S. participation.
Detailed explanation-3: -The structure of the league paralysed it, no one could agree on anything and the decisions had to be unanimous. It took too long to get anything done. The world wide economic depression made countries self interests their priorities, rather than world peace. The more the league failed, the less people trusted it.
