Chapter 1.2: What was the main reason for the weakness of the League of…

- - - - Moral Persuasion -> ineffective against strong offending nations, which ignored criticisms and condemnations.
        Military Sanctions -> LON did not have an army + League members were unwilling to get involved militarily.
        Economic Sanctions -> League members did not want their economy to be affected + Offending League members could withdraw from the League.
  - - - E.g The Secretariat was understaffed & disorganised. The Conference of Ambassadors often made decisions that should have been done by the LON itself. The working relationship between the General Assembly and the Council was not clearly defined.
- - - - To maintain peace, the League implemented disarmament to reduce the ability of countries to wage war, ensuring nations sorting out their differences in a peaceful manner.
    - - To maintain world peace & security, all members of the League would work together towards preventing wars and conflicts as any dispute between countries would be taken to the LON, who would act as the arbitrator and resolve the problem peacefully.
