Fourteen month after the end of the First World War, the League of Nations (LN) was founded on January 1920 to maintain world order, guarantee peace and security, adjudicate international disputes, resolve conflicts, promote global health, and so forth. Nevertheless, history shows that failure of League of Nations to fulfill its mission was one of the crucial factors that fueled World War II. This actuality, however, was somewhat dissented on the basis that the first international organization had neither the authority nor the means to command and enforce, which made it a flimsy association of state representatives.
