So in today's lesson, we saw the successes and failures of the League of Nations and we discovered that one reason for its weakness who the volatile membership situation where countries joined and left as they wished (eg. Germany and Japan) while the heavyweight countries did not join (eg. the USA) or joined only much later (eg. the USSR). So here is our discussion point:
Why was the Soviet Union allowed to join the League of Nations in 1934?
Focus: the Soviet Union
- What about the USSR? What's so bad/good about it? Was it not allowed to join earlier? Why not? Did it want to join earlier? Why yes? Why no?
Focus: 1934
- what about 1934? What's so unusual about 1934? Why 1934? Why not earlier? Why not later?
