ahhh its not a myth, we're doing conflict and tension 1919-1939 in GCSE history, and there's a LOT about the league of nations. We didn't learn the specific details of how Finland got aland, but aland was pretty much the League's only international dispute success. the final outcome was that Finland would take aland, but weren't allowed to militarise there, and Sweden agreed so as to prevent a war from happening, and because they were both relatively powerless countries, they couldn't argue much anyway.
p.s. I'm really glad to see a comic on this, I love the ones with historical context behind them XD
