Question

Trace the evolution of the United Nations since its establishment in 1945.

Answer 1

The United Nations was established in 1945 after the end of the Second World War as a successor to the League of Nations. The United Nations Charter was signed by 51 states for the setting up of the UN. The basic aim was to achieve what the League of Nations was not able to achieve during the First World War. The other objectives of the UN are: 

1. Prevention of conflicts and facilitating cooperation among nations. 
2. To stop conflicts among states resulting in war, and if it takes the shape of war, to limit the effects of war.
3. To reduce the reasons for conflict by bringing the countries together for improving social and economic development all over the world.
