TheLeague of Nationswas ainternational organization founded after theParis Peace Conference, 1919. The League's goals includeddisarmament, preventingwarthroughcollective security, settling disputes betweencountriesthroughnegotiationdiplomacy and improving globalwelfare. The diplomatic philosophy behind the League represented a fundamental shift in thought from the preceding hundred years. The League lacked an armed force of its own and so depended on theGreat Powers to enforce its resolutions, keep to economic sanctions which the League ordered, or provide an Army, when needed, for the League to use. However, it was often very reluctant to do so.

After a number of notablesuccessesand some earlyfailuresin the 1920s, the League ultimately proved incapable of preventing aggression by theAxis Powers in the 1930s. The onset of theSecond World Warmade it clear that the League had failed in its primary purpose—to avoid any future world war. TheUnited Nations Organization replaced it afterWorld War IIand inherited a number of agencies and organizations founded by the League.
