- There were 5 members
-Great Britain, France, Italy, US, and Japan.
- Four non-permanant members that rotated over the years.
- All the members must submit disputes for investigation, arbitration, and settlement.
- France wanted international army but US and Great Britain didnt.
- Germany and the Soviet Union were allowed to join right away.
- US never joined..
-The League of Nations... FAILED.
**Other Treaties
-There were many other treaties at the Peace Conference..
**Why didnt we pass the Treaty of Versailles??

-Since the Treaty didnt pass US didnt join the league of nations.
