The League of Nations was an international organization founded after World War I to promote peace and cooperation among countries, but it ultimately failed to prevent the outbreak of World War II due to its lack of enforcement power and the absence of major powers like the United States. Its shortcomings highlighted the need for a more robust international body, leading to the creation of the United Nations after World War II.
