There are 5 permanent members, who have veto rights, and then there are regional members who are voted on.  There have been suggestions that India, Germany and Japan, currently not permanent members, should be put on the council permanently in view of their importance to world economy and government, but no one really wants to try to reinvent things there because all hell will break loose.  In addition, South American and African countries are upset they have no permanent representatives on the council.

They probably should form an organizationlike the EU, but the reality is their economies aren't developed enough to do so.  They also suffer from a long history of corruption.  In a perfect world, it would make a lot of sense.

Are you in the UK?  I ask because you spelled organisation with an s, which I think is done there.  Anyway, I started typing a long answer, but found the website below.  Might be helpful.  Too tired to type more, but wanted to respond.

Check out the UN Security Council.....they are who decides what happens re:war.\n\nThe name "United Nations" was devised by United States President Franklin D. Roosevelt and was first used in the "Declaration by United Nations" of 1 January 1942, during the Second World War, when representatives of 26 nations pledged their Governments to continue fighting together against the Axis Powers.\n\nThe United Nations Charter was drawn up by the representatives of 50 countries at the United Nations Conference on International Organization, which met at San Francisco from 25 April to 26 June 1945. 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 in August-October 1944. The Charter was signed on 26 June 1945 by the representatives of the 50 countries. Poland, which was not represented at the Conference, signed it later and became one of the original 51 Member States.\n\nThe United Nations officially came into existence on 24 October 1945, when the Charter had been ratified by China, France, the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom, the United States and by a majority of other signatories. United Nations Day is celebrated on 24 October each year.

The reason why the UN is established in the first place is to have a neutral ground where international disputes and issues can be discussed by all the member states.  Therefore, I think that having the UN is better than having each state have their say on international issues using their own ways (wars, etc.)  It was after the second world war that this organization came to be.  Hence, it is an important impartial way of avoiding conflicts worldwide.

Here's some random information I found:\nApparently formed sometime in October of 1832, involving a man named John Bate Cardale. They believe in Holy Sealing (to get the Holy Spirit).They do not pass an offering plate during services. It states that there are over 10 million members, to become one...you would need to go to the bottom link and contact them...\n\n\nAccording to the web you can find out more from the following web sites:

There is no special format. The content however should contain the following.\n1. The list of participants.\n2. Time (Start and End) of the meeting\n3. Purpose of the meeting\n4. The list of issues discussed during the meeting (The different items discussed during the meeting)\n5. The list of action items, that is what was decided and who is responsible for carrying out which of the different decided actions.

You should do more research on the UN. They don't get any publicity when they are successful. They have prevented many civil wars since the 70's, such as Crete, Haiti, etc.

Not that I'm against the idea of a Federation of sorts, per se, but here's some of the problems with it.\n\n#1 - Any partitioning would have to include an agreement on how to split oil revenues.  This would obviously be problematic to get them to agree.\n\n#2 - While regions are predominantly one group or another, there's significant mixing of groups, overall, particularly in cities.  To not be the downtrodden minority, many would have to pack up and leave their homes, jobs, belongings and move to an uncertain future with no guarantees.  If someone is willing to stay and be the voiceless minority, they'd probably get "ethnically cleansed" out - I think my assumption here is also that if someone has something worth staying for, someone else will want to take it and will take advantage of the situation to do so.\n\nIt would be ugly and nasty.  Moreso than the road being travelled now?  I don't know.  That's part of the frustration with the mess we're in.  We're in so deep there are no "good" choices.

The UN ultimately has no clout because it has no financial muscle.\n\nThe only way the UN would gain this financial muscle is if it issued its own currency and all mineral commodities were traded in that currency.\n\nYje UN would then have an economic stranglehold on any country that fell foul of the international community.

How is promoting democracy and fighing terrorism equivalent to wanting to rule the world?  And why should we respect the U.N.?  Respect is earned and the U.N. is a marginal organization at best.
