Solution

The correct option is D USA
Although the League of Nations was the brainchild of US President Woodrow Wilson, the US never joined the League of Nations. It preferred a policy of isolation and avoided signing treaties and settling political disputes with other states. The absence of the US, a major power, severely weakened the League.
