Answer: According to the Charter of the United Nations, “is open to all peace-loving States that accept the obligations contained in the United Nations Charter and, in the judgment of the Organization, are able to carry out these obligations”. This means that every single country can join this organization although they have to be committed, and have to follow the orders. Even though every country can be part the United Nations, they have to fill out a form, which is the considered by the Security Council, and also has to have a vote of 9/15 from the main countries in the United Nations.

Answer: A major difference with the UN is that it was made during the time of war, while the League of Nations was made after the war. The League was also part of the treaty between Germany and the other countries, while the UN was a completely separate legal instrument. The League also allowed for a country to start a war if it was approved by the League's members, while the UN allows no acts of aggression. Each country of the league also had the power of veto, while the UN only gives the power to the security council. The league was also only for disputes between countries, while the UN has a far wider scope addressing issues about dirty water, lack of food, poverty and other global issues not to do directly with war.

The United Nations came into being in 1945, following the devastation of the Second World War, with one central mission: the maintenance of international peace and security. The UN does this by working to prevent conflict; helping parties in conflict make peace; peacekeeping; and creating the conditions to allow peace to hold and flourish. These activities often overlap and should reinforce one another, to be effective. The UN Security Council has the primary responsibility for international peace and security. The General Assembly and the Secretary-General play major, important, and complementary roles, along with other UN offices and bodies. http://www.un.org/en/sections/what-we-do/maintain-international-peace-and-security/]]> 2017-01-17 09:22:15 UTC https://padlet.com/jgogelescu/kdm0hgnddmaj/wish/147473506 https://padlet.com/jgogelescu/kdm0hgnddmaj/wish/147473570 In what ways is the United Nations "better" and "more effective" than the League of Nations?]]> 2017-01-17 09:22:36 UTC https://padlet.com/jgogelescu/kdm0hgnddmaj/wish/147473570 https://padlet.com/jgogelescu/kdm0hgnddmaj/wish/147473637 What are they doing and for what?

MAMIE:
There is a general assembly, called the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) made up of equal representation from different countries that admit countries into joining the UN, though they accept all countries or nations that want peace, however if they are not committed to the UN or they do not follow orders decided by the UNGA, they can be removed.

World War II had world leaders concerned and to prevent such a thing from happening again world leaders got together and formed the UN.

In 1945, representatives of 50 countries met in San Francisco at the United Nations Conference on International Organization to draw up the United Nations Charter. Those delegates deliberated on the basis of proposals worked out by the representatives of China, the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom and the United States at Dumbarton Oaks, United States in August-October 1944.
