On August 27th, 1928 the French foreign minister Aristide Briand proposed to U.S. Secretary of State, Frank Kellogg that two nations make a pact to never go to war with each other. Kellogg responded by proposing the bill encompass all nations on Earth. The pact was initially signed by 15 countries and eventually by 60.

It was an idealistic proposal brought about after the world reeled back from the disillusioning Great Worrld War. It was like the world realized war was bad, and we shouldn't do it. The political activities between countries afterwards symbolize the very core reasons why war is caused in the first place.

Nationalists began to get a superiority complex. Other ideas, values and sources of loyalty outside their nation were considered inferior and not tolerated. IE fascists started to spring up.

Furthermore with communism growing in popularity in China the Japanese began to get worried about their investments in Manchuria so they annexed it, and when there was no international response they started a full on war with China to stop the communists from seizing their assets.

While that happened, the German superiority complex grew and they began liberating germanic people that were under slavic control. Furthermore, for some reason Hitler wanted Russia. To this day his goals are not completely understood but for some reason he had very greedy eyes for the USSR.

And so how do we really usher in an era of world peace? Obviously we can't all just agree to disarm and stop fighting.
