The idea of collective security is that if all countries come together to form an alliance. Woodrow Wilson thought that collective security might prevent another world war because if any single country acted out, they would have no alliances and the rest of the world would turn against them. The League of Nations was doomed for its creation because they were missing three of the major countries in the world. The US, Russia and Germany. The US didn't join because they were practicing isolation because they wanted to stay out of world affairs so they could avoid other world wars that would involve them. Russia turned communist and as a result, the countries that were involved with the League of Nations were afraid of the influence of communism. Germany lost the war so the League of Nations didn't want Germany to have any say.

The members of the Big Three were Woodrow Wilson (President of the United States), Georges Clemenceau (French Prime Minister) and David Lloyd George (British Prime Minister). They were the main leaders responsible for the formation of the Treaty of Versailles during World War. Woodrow Wilson wanted to slightly punish Germany and he also wanted to get self determination and enforce the 14 points towards peace that he submitted. David Lloyd George also wanted to punish Germany but ever so slightly as well because he still wanted to maintain trade links between Germany to help the British economy. Georges Clemenceau wanted to punish Germany harshly and same with many other french people, unlike the other two leaders . He also wanted to stop the threat of Germany by destroying them. Vittorio Emanuele Orlando was once part of the big four and he was the Prime minister of Italy. Italy was supposed gain land as part of the treaty but they never ended up getting it so the group then became the Big Three.
