The '''United Nations''' ('''UN''') is an [[intergovernmental organization]] that was tasked to maintain international peace and security, develop friendly relations among nations, achieve international co-operation and be a centre for harmonizing the actions of nations.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.un.org/en/sections/un-charter/chapter-i/index.html|title=Charter of UN Chapter I|website=www.un.org|language=en|access-date=22 November 2018|date=2015-06-17|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171028091648/http://www.un.org/en/sections/un-charter/chapter-i/index.html|archive-date=28 October 2017|dead-url=no|df=dmy-all}}</ref> The [[headquarters of the United Nations|headquarters of the UN]] is in [[Manhattan]], [[New York City]], and is subject to [[extraterritoriality]]. Further main offices are situated in [[United Nations Office at Geneva|Geneva]], [[United Nations Office at Nairobi|Nairobi]], [[United Nations Office at Vienna|Vienna]] and [[The Hague#International politics|The Hague]]. The organization is financed by assessed and voluntary contributions from its member states. Its objectives include maintaining international peace and security, protecting human rights, delivering humanitarian aid, promoting [[sustainable development]] and upholding international law.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.un.org/en/sections/what-we-do/index.html|title=UN Objectives|website=www.un.org|language=en|access-date=22 November 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181122092127/http://www.un.org/en/sections/what-we-do/index.html|archive-date=22 November 2018|dead-url=no|df=dmy-all}}</ref> The UN is the largest, most familiar, most internationally represented and most powerful [[intergovernmental organization]] in the world. In 24 October 1945, at the end of [[World War II]], the organization was established with the aim of preventing future wars.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.nationalgeographic.org/encyclopedia/international-organization/|title=Nat Geo UN|website=www.nationalgeographic.org.|access-date=27 April 2017|date=2012-12-23|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170427195211/http://www.nationalgeographic.org/encyclopedia/international-organization/|archive-date=27 April 2017|dead-url=no|df=dmy-all}}</ref> At its founding, the UN had 51 [[Member states of the United Nations|member states]]; there are now {{UNnum}}. The UN is the successor of the ineffective [[League of Nations]].

On 25 April 1945, 50 governments met in [[San Francisco]] for [[United Nations Conference on International Organization|a conference]] and started drafting the [[United Nations Charter|UN Charter]], which was adopted on 25 June 1945 in the [[War Memorial Opera House|San Francisco Opera House]], and signed on 26 June 1945 in the [[Herbst Theatre|Herbst Theatre auditorium]] in the [[San Francisco War Memorial and Performing Arts Center|Veterans War Memorial Building]]. This charter took effect on 24 October 1945, when the UN began operation.

The UN's mission to preserve world peace was complicated in its early decades during the [[Cold War]] between the [[United States]] and [[Soviet Union]] and their respective allies. Its missions have consisted primarily of unarmed military observers and lightly armed troops with primarily monitoring, reporting and confidence-building roles.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://peacekeeping.un.org/en/our-history|title=UN Early years of the Cold War|website=peacekeeping.un.org|access-date=22 November 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181122132154/https://peacekeeping.un.org/en/our-history|archive-date=22 November 2018|dead-url=no|df=dmy-all}}</ref> The organization's membership grew significantly following widespread [[decolonization]] which started in the 1960s. Since then, 80 former colonies had gained independence, including 11 trust territories, which were monitored by the [[United Nations Trusteeship Council|Trusteeship Council]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.un.org/en/sections/issues-depth/decolonization/index.html|title=UN Decolonization|website=www.un.org|access-date=22 November 2018|date=2016-02-10|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181122132046/http://www.un.org/en/sections/issues-depth/decolonization/index.html|archive-date=22 November 2018|dead-url=no|df=dmy-all}}</ref> By the 1970s its budget for economic and social development programmes far outstripped its spending on [[peacekeeping]]. After the end of the Cold War, the UN shifted and expanded its field operations, undertaking a wide variety of complex tasks.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://peacekeeping.un.org/en/our-history|title=Post Cold War UN|website=peacekeeping.un.org|access-date=22 November 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181122132154/https://peacekeeping.un.org/en/our-history|archive-date=22 November 2018|dead-url=no|df=dmy-all}}</ref>

The UN has six principal organs: the [[United Nations General Assembly|General Assembly]]; the [[United Nations Security Council|Security Council]]; the [[United Nations Economic and Social Council|Economic and Social Council]]; the [[United Nations Trusteeship Council|Trusteeship Council]]; the [[International Court of Justice]]; and the [[United Nations Secretariat|UN Secretariat]]. The [[United Nations System|UN System]] agencies include the [[World Bank Group]], the [[World Health Organization]], the [[World Food Programme]], [[UNESCO]], and [[UNICEF]]. The UN's most prominent officer is the [[Secretary-General of the United Nations|Secretary-General]], an office held by Portuguese politician and diplomat [[António Guterres]] since 1 January 2017. Non-governmental organizations may be granted consultative status with ECOSOC and other agencies to participate in the UN's work.

The organization, its officers and its agencies have won many [[Nobel Peace Prize]]s.

Other evaluations of the UN's effectiveness have been mixed. Some commentators believe the organization to be an important force for peace and human development, while others have called the organization ineffective, biased, or corrupt.
