How did both the League of Nations and United States deal with the aggression of Germany, Italy, and Japan

Explanation:

The League of Nations was formed in 1919 to encourage the member countries to cooperate in trade, improve social conditions, complete disarmament and to protect any

member country that was being threatened with war. The League of Nations was the

initial idea of Woodrow Wilson, the president of the USA, and was formed to make

sure such world atrocities like the First World War never happened again. However,

we know that a Second World War with even greater loss of life took place, and

therefore most people conclude that the League of Nations failed. But why did the

League fail?

The League of Nations had many 'design' weaknesses; with probably the most

important and noticeable weakness was the absence of the USA. It was a great shock

and disappointment for the rest of the world when the American people voted for a

'policy of isolation', and despite the campaigning of Woodrow Wilson, decided not to

join the League of Nations. This can be considered a great weakness because the

USA was becoming the most powerful and influential country in the world, and

therefore the League would probably be unwilling to make a decision which would go

against the USA, and it would also mean that a country inside the League, who had

trade sanctions placed upon them would still be free to trade with the USA.

The League of Nations also seemed to have a weakness in not accepting Germany in

the League when it was first formed. This gave the impression that the League was

for the 'winners' of WWI, with Britain and France part of the inner council, and kept

the German people bitter and still wanting revenge.

Another weakness of the League was that it did not have an army of its own, and that

if it wanted an army to stand up to a troublesome country, it must raise an army from

member countries. This became ineffective, as many member countries were very

unwilling to raise an army and physically challenge a country, as they were afraid that

it would effect their own self-interests, as we'll see later in the Manchurian and the

Abyssinian crisis'.

Despite all these weaknesses, the League did have some success in the 1920's. The

League had successfully sorted out a disagreement between Finland and Sweden over

the Aaland Islands; between Germany and Poland over Upper Silesia, and between

Greece and Bulgaria. Apart from international disputes, some of the League's

greatest successes came in its work in the 'International Labour Organisation', in

which they got member countries to agree to things such as the '8 hour maximum

working day' and that there should be 'No-one to be in full time employment under 15

years of age'. However, the League did have failures in the 1920's, such as Vilna and

Corfu, and failed in its aim to achieve disarmament.

The small holes in the League became gaping ones after its downright failure to do

anything significant in the two main 'crisis'' of the early 1930's: The invasion of

Manchuria by Japan in '31 and the invasion of Abysinnia by the Italians in '35.
