1919 (Treaty of Paris) until (roughly) outbreak of hostilities in 1939. About 20 years, give or take.
Correction--it was officiously in existence until 1945 (while Germany did withdraw from it prior to 1939, Italy didn't after it had managed to openly take Ethiopia in 1936; UK also didn't, and US was never part of membership despite of it being brainchild of Woody Wilson). UN was "created" from its shambolic wreckage in 1945, using the methodology of taking the rubble of a collapsed building and using it as the construction material for a new building in the same exact spot.

The League of Nations failed when imperialist countries - starting with Germany - withdrew from it. World War II followed soon. Something to keep in mind when you hear all this nutso talk of abandoning the UN today. We can learn from history or repeat it. I'd rather we learn.
ONE Imperialist country withdrew (Germany), other imperialist countries (UK and France) stayed. Also, Italy (which showed imperialist ambititions in 1936 when it invaded....Ethiopia...didn't withdraw). US was never a member despite of it being Woody's brainchild.

First off a nation does what it deems best in it's own interest. Whether Germany remained in the League of Nations or not, it wasn't going to change the fact Hitler was still going to make a play on Europe. When Germany was in the League of Nations it was violating the rights of Jews...and the League did zero about it. The same members of the League handed over a chunk of Czechoslovakia to Germany and Poland. So who was helping the rights of the Jews and/or Czechoslovakia ?

Now move forward to the UN. Anyone that thinks the UN stopped Stalin from taking a bigger grab of Europe needs to have their head examined. It was nukes that kept that genocidal maniac from moving even further west. When the US dropped two A-bombs on Japan it did two things...it brought the Japs to their knees and it sent a message to Stalin that the same thing could very well happen to Moscow if he got any idea's of moving further west. This still didn't stop Stalin and his commie pr*cks from murdering Eastern Europeans like it was open season on them. The UN did zero in regards to the Iron Curtain and the occupation of Eastern Europe. The UN didn't stop Mao from killing well over 40 million people and invading Tibet. The UN did zero when Pol Pot was committing genocide in Cambodia.

The UN is nothing short of a sick pathetic joke who's only interest it serves is the permanent members of said joke.

Since you brought it up, I must compare this to our other spirited conversation regarding Iraq. So at what point does a nation in a position of power (regardless of the country - US, UK, Russia, China...) say to themselves "Hey, this UN is nothing but a joke...but we need to do something anyway."? As I mentioned before, Iraq was violating the UN resolutions put in place after Iraq had slaughtered thousands of Kurds in the north of Iraq, the US brought these concerns to the UN, and the UN proceeded to stick their heads in the sand. So if it was so wrong for the US to take care of the problem alone, then what should have happened?

Germany and Japan withdrew in 1933. Italy withdrew from the LON in 1937. WWII started two years later after all three axis countries had withdrawn from the League of Nations. Nothing wrong with engaging in an argument but you should at least attempt to get yer facts straight.
