jan 1, 1925 - Bulgaria

Description:

Occurred two years after the Corfu incident

Greek troops invaded Bulgaria after an incident on the border, in which some Greeks were killed, and Bulgaria appealed for help.

The secretary-general of the League was immediately on this situation and called a meeting of the League council in Paris. League demanded that both Greece and Bulgaria stand down. League judged in favor of the Bulgarians and Greece had to also pay $45,000 in compensation, but if they disagreed to pay the League threatened sanctions.

The Greeks obeyed, but complained about it a lot.

The situation was a major success for the League and many observers to forget about the same of Corfu.
