Read the following passage. Then fill in the diagram with the information that you read.
The United Nations
The United Nations is an international organization. Its primary goal is to maintain peace among the countries of the world. It is comprised of 193 nations and has existed for over fifty years. The United Nations officially convened for the first time in 1945. However, a series of events preceded its formation.
Before the United Nations came into existence, there was another organization with a similar goal called the League of Nations. It was founded in 1919, shortly after World War 1. However, the League of Nations was not effective in enforcing its resolutions. This and other limitations left world leaders wanting a different type of international organization.
