The Kellogg-Briand Peace Pact was passed in 1928 by several countries, including Germany, France, and the United States. This eventually turned out to be a complete failure, though it began with high hopes and good intentions. The idea was that the treaty would encourage a more peaceful way of dealing with conflict diplomatically with the countries that signed, rather than barbarically go to war immediately. The United States became the unofficial leader of this agreement as it progressed, and allowed other nations to join the treaty. However, there was something fundamentally wrong with this pact. This, unfortunately, did not. Without military support, they could not enforce the pact if a country decided to break it.
