An agreement was reached to treat Germany equally

September, 1932

Britainsent Germany a note in order to agree equality, it the superior tone got Germans even more angry

July,1932

Germany proposed to all the countries to disarm at their level

In the 1030’s the League was under pressure to do something about disarmament, because Germany was angry about the fact that they weire forcedto disarm and other nations didn’t do the same

Also other natios were spending more money in their armaments than before the First World War

The Locarno Treaties

In 1925 France, Britain, Germany, Italy, Poland, Belgium and Czechoslovakia met in Locarno in order to negotitate

Germany Finally was accepted in the League of Nations and it was welcome in 1926

France and Geemany accepted to take their fights into the League of Nations

Germany accepted Rhineland to stay as a demilitarised zone

Germany accepted borders with France and Belgium that were taken out in the Treaty of Versailles

Britain and Italy would protect France if Germany didn’t obey

The failure of disarmament damage the league reputation in Germany, Germany was disarmedbut no other countries would dare disarm at the same extent

Countries were not prepared to give up their own armies

USA, Japan, Britain and France agreed to limit the size of their navies in a conference in 1921, but that was as far as disarmament ever got

The league largely failed in bringing disarmament
