Book excerpt: Excerpt from Oppressed Peoples and the League of Nations There is, notwithstanding, a less dismal side to the picture. It is true that during the years following the Armistice the industrial prosperity of Europe was destroyed by the deliberate ruination of Germany; that the Austrians subsisted on loans; and that Russia struggled to free herself from the effects of the series of disasters - invasion, blockade, famine - Which constituted her lot since the Revolution. But observers who were capable of looking beyond these dark conditions were conscious of one great accomplishment, namely that after 1918 no single nation in except Ireland, remained under the yoke of an alien domination.
