Why The League of Nations Failed? When the Germans surrendered at the end of WWI the world shifted its focus from fighting to figuring out how to resolve the issue at hand and come up with a treaty. The Treaty of Versailles was a creation of the Big Four, Italy, France, Great Britain, and the United States. A big point of the treaty was Wilson's League of Nations. The League of Nations as we know it is not around today, because when Wilson suggested it he did not have the support of his constituents, and the Senate. Wilson's first blunder was to go to Europe himself. This was the fist time a president left the United States to deal with foreign affairs. This angered the senate, and because the senate was angry they where not going to budge on a bill they were not overly excited in the first place. The second major blunder of Wilson's was he didn't want half of the bill passed he made it an all or nothing bill.
