- Why the League of Nations was set up
- To stop war
- The League wanted to see the Great war as the war that ended all wars.
- The idea was to use collective security where by an attack on one member country would be viewed as an attack on all.
- To improve peoples lives
- Provide jobs
- Provide healthcare
- Encourage trade
- Improve working conditions
- To help minorities. eg. refugees, slaves, women
- Disarmament
- The aim of the League was for all countries to reduce their military capability to a minimum
- To enforce the Treaty of Versailles
- Despite the treaty being far from perfect it was important for the League to support it. Otherwise there could well have been chaos.
- So that all countries were seen as singing from the same hymn sheet they all had to sign the couenant of the League.
- To stop war
