The United Nations!! It was formed in late 1945 with the aim of preventing the international circumstances that resulted in the last World War, from ever being allowed to develop again. It was also keen to avoid the kind of built-in defects that prevented the old League of Nations from being as effective between the wars as it could have been. Extra mandates were added to the UN in subsequent years, mainly in the late '40s / early '50s (for example, the UN Declaration of Human Rights was added in '48). What used to be the old League of Nations building, is now the UN's European Headquarters, in Geneva.
