U.N.
The League of Nations now called the United Nations was founded in1919. The League of Nations was composed shortly after the first worldwar in order to prevent any more wars. The League of Nations collapsedin 1939. On January 1 of 1942 United Nations was born. During WWII,26 nations joined their forces to continue fighting against the AxisPowers. The United Nations Charter was drawn up by representatives of51 nations and signed on June 26, 1945. The United Nations wasofficially born on October 24, 1945 when the Charter was authorized byChina, USSR, France, UK, USA and many other nations. The UnitedNations has three primary goals; to achieve and maintain world peace,to promote and develop good relations among all nations and to worktogether with other nations on solving economic, social, cultural andhumanitarian problems. Many other functions are done by the UN, theyprotect human rights, fight epidemics, poverty and famine, deliver aidin form of food, clot! hes and medicine. They provide monetary loansto developing countries through the World Bank to help them achievetheir goals. The UN is composed of six major branches. GeneralAssembly, The Security Council, Economic and Social Council,
The major reason why UN was formed is to promote andensure world peace. This infact cannot be avoided because of the job that the UN has. In Europe the United Nations have alsoplayed a big role as peacekeepers. It often takes time for the UNto decide weather or it is necessary for them to step in and assumecontrol. Whenever there is aconflict the media shows armed man in their armed vehicles patrollingcertain areas. One of the biggestproblems for the UN is the time factor. The UN was involved in bringingpeace to former Yugoslavia and its surrounding nations. In some cases the UN was to slow to react and the weakernations have suffered enormous consequences. In many occasions the UN is required to step into a nation and solveits problems because they are not capable of! doing it themselves. Peacemaking also triesto resolve the conflict diplomatically but after the bout becomesviolent. The UN has been involved in many smallconflicts which could have evolved to a bigger bout if not for theirintervention. To theworld wide public the UN is viewed as a world army, coming in asmercenaries whenever the higher powers call upon them. The UN has to make sure that when they get involved in theconflict it will be solved fairly quickly and that the costs of suchintervention will not be to high for them as well as the nationsinvolved. This causes a problem because any conflict can cause amajor war.
