Presentation transcript:

How successful was the League in the 1920s? ‘The League of Nations was a great force for peace in the 1920s.’ ‘Events of the 1920s showed just how weak the League really was.’ ‘The League’s successes were small scale and they had yet to be tested by large and powerful country.’

Whose right? Historians do not agree about how successful the League was in the 1920s. There is no right or wrong answer, as long as you use evidence to back your argument up.

Trading relationships reduced tension. When countries were trading with one another they were less likely to go to war. But then in 1929 it all changed……………………………..

The Wall Street Crash (1929) 1) Have you ever heard of this event? 2) Do you know anything about it?

Impact on Europe All of Europe was hit hard by the Wall Street Crash and the depression that followed. The boom was over, trading reduced and companies went bust. Britain, Germany and France suffered high unemployment as a result.

The impact on the League
