The United Nations (UN) is an intergovernmental organization that was founded on October 24, 1945, after World War II ended. The aim of the United Nations is to foster international cooperation and to safeguard international peace and security. It has 193 member countries and is headquartered in New York City. The United Nations is comprised of six major organs: the General Assembly, the Security Council, the International Court of Justice, the Secretariat, the Economic and Social Council, and the Trusteeship Council (which has been dormant since the 1990s). The United Nations conducts a wide range of activities, including peacekeeping missions, humanitarian assistance, human rights promotion, and measures to promote sustainable development.
