Seen by most as the precursor to the United Nations, the League of Nations had its intentions in the right place, but the execution was poor. Due to several key countries not being able to join the new super alliance, the organisation did not hold as much power as it had originally intended to. Due to this colossal failure new agressive ideologies such as fascism were easily spread, and the League was only a shadow of its intended purpose, and soon crumbled and made way for a new and even more deadly war.
