What could be done to prevent future wars?
League of Nations
An international diplomatic group developed after World War I as a way to solve disputes between countries before they erupted into open warfare.
A precursor to the United Nations, the League achieved some victories but had a mixed record of success, sometimes putting self-interest before becoming involved with conflict resolution, while also contending with governments that did not recognize its authority.
Reparations
The Treaty of Versailles didn’t just blame Germany for the war—it demanded financial restitution for the whole thing.
The other Central Powers were also forced to pay for the devastation caused during the war, but because of their own economic crash, very little was actually paid.
Hyperinflation in Germany due to Reparations
Cost for a loaf of bread
Isolationism
the policy or doctrine of isolating one's country from the affairs of other nations by declining to enter into alliances, foreign economic commitments, international agreements, etc., seeking to devote the entire efforts of one's country to its own advancement and remain at peace by avoiding foreign entanglements and responsibilities.
Failure of Versailles Treaty will lead to WWII
