The League of Nations (LoN) is an intergovernmental organization that aims to maintain international peace and security, develop friendly relations among nations, achieve international cooperation, and be a center for harmonizing the actions of nations. The League was established after the Great War with the aim of preventing future wars, replacing an earlier system of ad hoc diplomatic congresses and summits.
