ONU Second World War.

The United Nations is an international organization founded in 1945 after the Second World War by 51 countries that pledged to maintain international peace and security, foster friendly relations between nations, and promote social progress, improved living standards, and human rights.

The Organization can make decisions on a wide range of issues, and provide a forum for its 193 Member States to express their views, through the General Assembly, the Security Council, the Economic and Social Council, and other organs and commissions.

Consequences of the second world war.

Devastation of Europe: There were big bombings and there was a great economic investment for the reconstruction of the cities like the so-called Marshall Plan proposed by the United States.

The European and axis powers were economically devastated, this caused the emergence of great powers such as the United States and the Soviet Union.

German division: When Germany was defeated, the territory was controlled by the USSR and the allied countries. This caused Germany to split into two nations: German Federal Republic and German Democratic Republic.
