WORLD HISTORY

Detailed explanation-1: -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.

Detailed explanation-2: -The League failed to intervene in many conflicts leading up to World War II, including the Italian invasion of Abyssinia, the Spanish Civil War, and the Second Sino-Japanese War. The onset of the Second World War demonstrated that the League had failed in its primary purpose, the prevention of another world war.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -The international relations of member countries conflicted with the League’s requirements for collective security. The League didn’t have its own armed forces and depended on members to act, but none of the member countries were ready for another war and didn’t want to provide military support.

Detailed explanation-5: -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.
