The Manchurian Incident. Britain and France were too weak to form an army against Japan, and with the US out of the League, they had no one else to go to to help China defend their land.

The league of nations took action against Italy's aggression in Africa by?

The League of Nations prooved to be powerless and uninfluential. See the story of their failure below from Wikipedia under the heading of The League of Nations. Sanctions could also hurt the League members, so they were reluctant to comply with them. When, during the Second Italo-Abyssinian War, the League accused Benito Mussolini's soldiers of targeting Red Cross medical tents, Mussolini responded that Ethiopians were not fully human, therefore the human rights laws did not apply. Benito Mussolini stated that "The League is very well when sparrows shout, but no good at all when eagles fall out." After a number of notable successes and some early failures in the 1920s, the League ultimately proved incapable of preventing aggression by the Axis powers in the 1930s. In May 1933, the League was powerless to convince Adolf Hitler that Franz Bernheim,[4] a Jew, was protected under the minority clauses established by the League in 1919 (that all minorities were fully human and held equal rights among all men). Hitler claimed these clauses violated Germany's sovereignty. Germany withdrew from the League, soon to be followed by many other aggressive powers. The onset of World War II showed that the League had failed its primary purpose, which was to avoid any future world war. The United Nations replaced it after the end of the war and inherited a number of agencies and organizations founded by the League.


Mussolini invasion of Ethiopia?

The invasion took place in 1935, and although the civilized world was disgusted, no countries declared war on Italy in an attempt to save Ethiopia. The League of Nations proved itself largely powerless to stop this aggression. Ethiopia had a small and poorly equipped army which was no match for the modern Italian army and air force. Italy also used poison gas against the Ethiopians, as Japan had done against the Manchurians five years earlier. After Mussolini entered World War II, the British defeated Italian forces in Ethiopia, and Addis Ababa became the first capital city liberated from the Axis.


How did the League of nations use appeasement?

The League of Nations often resorted to appeasement as a strategy to maintain peace and stability in the face of aggressive actions by member states. By allowing minor territorial infringements or conflicts to go unchecked, the League aimed to prevent larger wars and maintain diplomatic relations among countries. This approach, however, ultimately proved ineffective, as it emboldened aggressor nations like Italy and Japan, leading to further violations and the League's eventual failure to prevent World War II.


Why was weapons of method did the League of Nations propound to achieve collective security?

The League of Nations aimed to achieve collective security through diplomatic means, including negotiation, arbitration, and the imposition of economic sanctions against aggressor states. It sought to resolve disputes peacefully, encouraging member nations to cooperate and support one another in the face of aggression. The League's Covenant also included provisions for collective military action, although this was less effectively implemented due to lack of commitment from major powers. Ultimately, the League's reliance on collective will and moral authority proved insufficient to prevent conflicts.
