Everything Everywhere Daily

The Formation of the United Nations


Listen Later

In the midst of the Second World War, the Allied powers began planning ahead for what the post-war world was going to look like. 

The Legion of Nations had failed to prevent World War II. If they were to prevent another major war from breaking out in the 20th century, they needed something else. 

Learning from the lessons from the past, they created a new organization that would ultimately be run by the winners of the war. 

Learn more about how and why the United Nations was formed on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
