The League of Nations was formed in which year? |
1918 1921 1920 1925 |
1920 |
The correct answer is Option (3) - 1920 The League of Nations was formed on January 10, 1920. The League of Nations was a product of the Paris Peace Conference of 1919, involving representatives from many countries. The First World War encouraged the world to invest in an international organisation to deal with conflict. Many believed that such an organisation would help the world to avoid war. As a result, the League of Nations was born. However, despite its initial success, it could not prevent the Second World War (1939-45). Many more people died and were wounded in this war than ever before. The UN was founded as a successor to the League of Nations. It was established in 1945 immediately after the Second World War. |
