Explanation:

1. Which of the following is NOT TRUE of France after World War I.

d. Unwilling to see Germany permanently weakened.

For me this is the correct answer. Why? Because after the Treaty of Versailles was signed, it was agreed that Germany should take full responsibility of the war, and therefore had to pay reparations to France.

2. Which of the following was NOT a weakness of the League of Nations?

c. The Soviet Union did not join until 1934. Italy, Japan, and Germany were all key council members and all wished to see Versailles revised.

The League weakened further when some of the main powers left in the 1930s.

Japan began as a permanent member of the Council, but withdrew in 1933 as the League expressed its opposition to the invasion of the Chinese territory of Manchuria.

Italy also began as a permanent member, but withdrew in 1937.

The League had accepted Germany as a member in 1926, considering it a "peace-loving country", but it was withdrawn when Adolf Hitler came to power in 1933.

Another important power, the Union Bolshevik Soviet, was only a member of 1934, when she joined to confront Germany, until December 14, 1939, when she was expelled for aggression against Finland.

3. Stalin was invited to the Munich Conference even though the USSR saw Czechoslovakia as having no importance. True or False?

The answer is False.

Stalin was not consulted about the Munich Agreement. He was not even invited to the conference.

4. The British closed the Suez Canal and imposed an embargo of oil, coal, and steel on Italy after it invaded Abyssinia. True or False?

This is false.

Who imposed the embargo was the League of Nations.

And the British didn't close the Suez Canal.

Due to the benefit of the retrospective, it might be sensible to say that the British could have hindered Italy in the invasion of Abyssinia by blocking a passage through the Suez Canal. Although the Italians, after all, depended completely on the channel to access East Africa and the Royal Navy was more than qualified to undertake such an operation.
