Thank you We sneak and here's your shmoop du jour

00:05

brought to you by the league of nations which sounds

00:08

a whole lot like a group of evil Supervillains doesn't

00:11

all right here's your question what many historians believe caused

00:15

the failure of the league of nations and hear the

00:18

potential answer your exclusion nukes three well if we know

00:25

anything about the league it's that they had a hard

00:27

time deciding on a cool evil villain slogan tio no

00:31

that's not right What we actually know is that germany

00:34

was a part of the league which means our answer

00:36

can't be eh And we don't know about you but

00:38

we think it'd be pretty hard to exclude someone from

00:41

an organization when they're you know a member of that

00:43

organization we also known answer isn't d one of the

00:47

reasons the league was founded in the first place was

00:49

to actually put a stop to batman and it started

00:53

running again It was to put a stop to the

00:55

secret diplomacy they believe led to the first world war

00:59

which may or may not have something to do with

01:01

that man way also know that b isn't the right

01:04

Choice why Well the primary goal of the league of

01:07

nations was to maintain world peace the onset of the

01:10

second world war was a pretty obvious sign that the

01:12

whole thing was a big failure and since the development

01:15

of nuclear arms didn't really kick off until well well

01:19

in the world war to be simply doesn't make sense

01:21

that leaves us with the correct answer is c the

01:24

united states has a lot of experience with charging Not

01:27

only did it leave the charge to establish the united

01:30

nations in the wake of world war two but prior

01:32

to that it had led the charge to establish the

01:35

league of nations or rather president woodrow But when push

01:39

came to shove us senate decided america wouldn't join the

01:43

league donations for fear of getting involved in everyone else's

01:46

business It was the lack of one of the world's

01:49

major economic and military powers that ultimately made the league

01:53

ineffective at enforcing its rules United nations went on to

01:57

replace the league of nations and currently hold one hundred

02:00

ninety three member states also seem a lot less like 00:02:03.52 --> [endTime] an evil supervillain group then more like don't don't
