  • The Five-Power Treaty

    The Five-Power Treaty
    Internationalist: The Five-Power treaty, signed by the United States, Great Britain, Japan, France and Italy was the cornerstone of the naval disarmament program. It called for each of the countries involved to maintain a set ratio of warship tonnage. Regarded as a success, there was some controversy over expansion. While the U.S., British and Japanese already had many bases in the Pacific but outlawed their expansion further.
