📅 27 Augustus 1928 📍 International

Fifteen governments signed a treaty renouncing war as an instrument of national policy. Britain signed on behalf of parts of its empire, including India, without separate representation for colonized peoples. The pact expressed an ambitious ideal of peaceful dispute settlement but had no enforcement mechanism capable of stopping later invasions, exposing the gap between diplomatic declarations and imperial power.
