When Benito Mussolini attacked Ethiopia in 1935, the Ethiopians were almost helpless to respond. When Ethiopia's Emperor Haile Selassie appealed to the League of Nations for support, not one nation volunteered any help, making a mockery of the League's entire purpose of existence (collective security). If no one was willing to help Ethiopia, then no one would come to the defense of another nation if it too is set upon by fascist aggressors. The weakness projected by the League would only embolden the dictators. Selassie predicted this would be the fate of any number of European nations when the fascists targeted them: sacrificed, left alone to the enemy in order to preserve a meaningless peace. As the events in Europe concerning Austria and Czechoslovakia later showed, he was right.
