The United Nations originated as a bureau within the US State Department during [[World War II]] tasked with planning and organizing a post-War future.  President [[Franklin D. Roosevlet]] envisaged "four policemen", the British Empire, United States, Soviet Union, and [[Kuomintang]] to be the major forces on what later became the UN Security Council to enforce the peace worldwide.  This was deemed a modern approach to replace the old [[spheres of influence]] as they were called during the age of Imperialism.  Ulitmately the Kuomintang were subverted and replaced by the Soviet Union's [[Comintern]] ally, the [[Chinese Communist Party]].  The CCP holds the UN Security Council seat to this day, despite the fact their Soviet ally abandoned the policy of workers world revolution and communist subversion more than 15 years ago.

In the original planning stages State Department employee and KGB Agent [[Alger Hiss]] was tasked with much of the organizational work and later became the first Secretary General at the United Nations Charter Conference in San Fransisco.  US Secretary of State Cordell Hull said a the time while selling the idea to Congress, "there will no longer be need for spheres of influence, for alliances, for balance of power, or any other of the separate alliances through which in the unhappy past the nations strove to safeguard their security or promote their interest."  Nonetheless, the NATO separate alliance came into existeence at the same time and played a much greater role in US foreign policy commitments and decisions during the [[Cold War]] than the UN ever did.
