What to Focus On

  • The United Nations was formed after the Second World War.
  • Its main purpose is to maintain peace and security.
  • It promotes cooperation in economic, social, cultural, and humanitarian fields.
  • All members are equal in principle.
  • Peaceful settlement of disputes is essential.
  • Threat and violence are not acceptable in international relations.
  • The United Nations has six main organs.
  • The General Assembly is the chief deliberative organ.
  • The Security Council is the executive body.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The General Assembly is the executive body of the United Nations.

The Security Council has 193 members because it represents the whole United Nations.

The General Assembly appoints the Secretary-General on its own, without any role for the Security Council.
