There are always nations who take an Anti-UN position in NationStates. These nations have decided that the potential benefits gained from UN membership (such as invasion play, proposal submitting and approving, etc.) are not worth the costs.

The costs associated with UN membership include threats to sovereignty, undesired changes to national statistics (as imposed by the Compliance Ministry), and a wide variety of philosophical differences. Others choose not to be members of the UN for Roleplaying reasons.

Some see the UN as an attempt to impose a world government over the entire collection of NationStates. This theory is dismissed by its opponents by pointing to the statistics that show that only about one-third of all nations are in fact UN members.
