League of nations (Collective security)
Notes:
It was doomed from the start because of the exclusion of USA, Russia and Germany.
The US wasn't allowed in due to their congress, Russia because they were Communist and Germany just lost the war.
The US congress was afraid that they would get ripped into a future World War. Isolationism.
Without these three there is no backing.
