Revision as of 00:08, 18 October 2004
The United Nations works from a body of International Law. The UN members vote to accept proposals into resolutions, and push for repeals of existing resolutions. Here is the current body of law as accepted by the United Nations.
Contents
UN Timeline
The official chronology of the United Nations only makes note of the passage of proposals. There is no corresponding record of failed resolutions, propositions that were pulled from the queue after achieving quorum but before going to a vote, and similar events that seemed quite important at the time. The following list is a chronology, assembled by meticulous study of forum topics past and the recollections of UN members and observers.
Since game time tends to be somewhat fluid, this list has been indexed into annual quarters. The numbers express the 'official' chronology, with other important events inserted where appropriate. All of 2002 and much of early 2003 is no longer available in the forums, so your assistance is especially welcome in upgrading that portion of the Timeline.
