On this day – 15th November 1920 – The first League of Nation General Assembly was held
The League of Nation was founded on January 10th
1920 and is considered the forerunner of today’s United Nations. It was established as a part of the Paris
Peace conference, which ended the First World War, and it was a part of US
President Woodrow Wilson’s 14-point plan. Wilson received the Nobel’s peace
prise for his work towards this, but the US never joined the organization. League
of Nation was established as an international organisation with the goal of
maintaining world peace. The organization has never been considered as too successful,
although it did have some impact on international issues in the middle of the
1920s. In 1943 was it agreed among the allied power to create a new, and
stronger, organisation to replace the League of Nation and this is how the
United Nations was created. The league of Nations held its last meeting on 18th
of April 1946 where it officially ended its existence.
