What was it about the United Nations that made it a success when the League of Nations failed so miserably

History

wariber [46]3 years ago

It “succeeds” (this term used liberally) because the US is involved.

In the late 1910’s Wilson put all his war chips on forming the League of Nations while at Versailles, but never thought about the US not being involved. Once the League was formed and the US didn't get involved, the other countries really didn't have enough power to keep everyone in line. For example, when Japan was reprimanded for its actions in the Pacific pre-WII, they just left the LN and no one could stop them or penalize them. Not only that, but the League of Nations designer, President Wilson, wasn't actually a participant so no one was sure what they were doing.

However, with the US involvement in the UN, we are a major military and financial power in the world. As a member of the Security Council and a world superpower, we can initiate a world of hurt on anyone who doesn't follow the rules or at least get others to work it out. Again, this leads to the fact that the UN is not especially successful, but it is more successful then the LN. Any country can, and has, just go “pfft, you’all are losers, Im doing what I want.” They might get slapped with embargoes, surcharges, or in extreme cases invasions, but ultimately the UN can't stop them.

laiz [17]

This should help you!:)Developments in 19th-century Europe are bounded by two great events. The French Revolution broke out in 1789, and its effects reverberated throughout much of Europe for many decades. World War I began in 1914. Its inception resulted from many trends in European society, culture, and diplomacy during the late 19th century. In between these boundaries—the one opening a new set of trends, the other bringing long-standing tensions to a head—much of modern Europe was defined.

Europe during this 125-year span was both united and deeply divided. A number of basic cultural trends, including new literary styles and the spread of science, ran through the entire continent. European states were increasingly locked in diplomatic interaction, culminating in continentwide alliance systems after 1871. At the same time, this was a century of growing nationalism, in which individual states jealously protected their identities and indeed established more rigorous border controls than ever before. Finally, the European continent was to an extent divided between two zones of differential development. Changes such as the Industrial Revolution and political liberalization spread first and fastest in western Europe—Britain, France, the Low Countries, Scandinavia, and, to an extent, Germany and Italy. Eastern and southern Europe, more rural at the outset of the period, changed more slowly and in somewhat different ways.

Europe witnessed important common patterns and increasing interconnections, but these developments must be assessed in terms of nation-state divisions and, even more, of larger regional differences. Some trends, including the ongoing impact of the French Revolution, ran through virtually the entire 19th century. Other characteristics, however, had a shorter life span.

Some historians prefer to divide 19th-century history into relatively small chunks. Thus, 1789–1815 is defined by the French Revolution and Napoleon; 1815–48 forms a period of reaction and adjustment; 1848–71 is dominated by a new round of revolution and the unifications of the German and Italian nations; and 1871–1914, an age of imperialism, is shaped by new kinds of political debate and the pressures that culminated in war. Overriding these important markers, however, a simpler division can also be useful. Between 1789 and 1849 Europe dealt with the forces of political revolution and the first impact of the Industrial Revolution. Between 1849 and 1914 a fuller industrial society emerged, including new forms of states and of diplomatic and military alignments. The mid-19th century, in either formulation, looms as a particularly important point of transition within the extended 19th century.

Undergirding the development of modern Europe between the 1780s and 1849 was an unprecedented economic transformation that embraced the first stages of the great Industrial Revolution and a still more general expansion of commercial activity. Articulate Europeans were initially more impressed by the screaming political news generated by the French Revolution and ensuing Napoleonic Wars, but in retrospect the economic upheaval, which related in any event to political and diplomatic trends, has proved more fundamental.

Major economic change was spurred by western Europe’s tremendous population growth during the late 18th century, extending well into the 19th century itself. Between 1750 and 1800, the populations of major countries increased between 50 and 100 percent, chiefly as a result of the use of new food crops (such as the potato) and a temporary decline in epidemic disease. Population growth of this magnitude compelled change. Peasant and artisanal children found their paths to inheritance blocked by sheer numbers and thus had to seek new forms of paying labour. Families of businessmen and landlords also had to innovate to take care of unexpectedly large surviving broods. These pressures occurred in a society already attuned to market transactions, possessed of an active merchant class, and blessed with considerable capital and access to overseas markets as a result of existing dominance in world trade.

Why wasn’t trade important part of the economy of the Inca?
Lynna [10]

The correct answer is A) people had nothing to trade because only the emperor owned property.

Trade wasn't an important part of the economy of the Inca because people had nothing to trade because only the emperor owned property.

The Inca were one of the most important civilizations in South America in Prehispanic times. They settled in the mountains called "Anders" in Peru and built the impressive city of Macchu Pichu. People lived in modest houses made of stone and as they lived in the mountains, they worked as farmers to make a living building "terraces," portions of flat land where they could grow crops.
