'''The UN Headquarters''' -- a massive complex registered on the [[World Heritage List]], comprising a 40-story building; substantial basement digs; a bar full of drunken diplomats; a saloon for filthy [[National Sovereignty Organization#Membership|sovereigntist]] [http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=10080359&postcount=19 outlaws]; an underground [[UN DEFCON|bunker]] where concerned [[nations]] secretly devise international-security schemes; and a dank, cobweb-filled [[United Nations Old Guard|dungeon]] where shadowy figures supposedly plot the [[United Nations|UN]]'s every move -- is reserved for conducting business pertaining to the [[NationStates]] [[United Nations]]. It occupies a secure, undisclosed location somewhere in the NationStates [[multiverse]], and incidents involving militarized penguins, foul-mouthed [[Antarctic Oasis#Native Sentients|naval dolphins]], [[Cluichstan|Cluichstani]] "servicewomen," [[Omigodtheykilledkenny#Kenny Armed Forces|Stripper Commandos]], mysterious robed otaku, robot destructor bunnies, sacred goats, scummy [[Compliance Ministry]] gnomes, anti-UN gnomes (employed by the [[Omigodtheykilledkenny|OMGTKK]] delegation), a talking cat, diplomatic [[dwarves]] and other odd sapient beings, an ambiguously gay barkeep, and a flatulent dragon going by the name Gurgle -- are common. Many UN [[List of Ambassadors to the United Nations|ambassadors]] have permanent offices here, though many delegations have hired on substantial security staff, as much of the complex has been deemed unsafe: mutants and other bizarre creatures are fabled to have overrun large portions of the building's underground real-estate, as well as the floors formerly occupied by [[Enn]] and [[DemonLordEnigma]]. In addition, packs of overzealous office-stealers constantly prowl the halls, poised to bagsy a departing [[UN Member|member]]'s office and/or office supplies at a moment's notice. The facilities are managed by a vast bureaucracy aptly named the [[UN Building Mgmt]], the staff of which tirelessly and thanklessly sees to mountains of paperwork, maintenance, cleaning and divying out much-demanded office space. Most UN business is conducted on the [[UN Forum]] or in the enormous, multi-story [[General Assembly]] chamber, though other affairs are negotiated in various committee rooms, meeting rooms for the UN's resident think-tanks, and the [[Strangers' Bar]] -- envoys often pulling cards from the [[UN Cards|UN Deck]] to state their government's position on issues that come before the international body.

The UN Building
</div>

The UN Headquarters -- a massive complex registered on the World Heritage List, comprising a 40-story building; substantial basement digs; a bar full of drunken diplomats; a saloon for filthy sovereigntist outlaws; an underground bunker where concerned nations secretly devise international-security schemes; and a dank, cobweb-filled dungeon where shadowy figures supposedly plot the UN's every move -- is reserved for conducting business pertaining to the NationStates United Nations. It occupies a secure, undisclosed location somewhere in the NationStates multiverse, and incidents involving militarized penguins, foul-mouthed naval dolphins, Cluichstani "servicewomen," Stripper Commandos, mysterious robed otaku, robot destructor bunnies, sacred goats, scummy Compliance Ministry gnomes, anti-UN gnomes (employed by the OMGTKK delegation), a talking cat, diplomatic dwarves and other odd sapient beings, an ambiguously gay barkeep, and a flatulent dragon going by the name Gurgle -- are common. Many UN ambassadors have permanent offices here, though many delegations have hired on substantial security staff, as much of the complex has been deemed unsafe: mutants and other bizarre creatures are fabled to have overrun large portions of the building's underground real-estate, as well as the floors formerly occupied by Enn and DemonLordEnigma. In addition, packs of overzealous office-stealers constantly prowl the halls, poised to bagsy a departing member's office and/or office supplies at a moment's notice. The facilities are managed by a vast bureaucracy aptly named the UN Building Mgmt, the staff of which tirelessly and thanklessly sees to mountains of paperwork, maintenance, cleaning and divying out much-demanded office space. Most UN business is conducted on the UN Forum or in the enormous, multi-story General Assembly chamber, though other affairs are negotiated in various committee rooms, meeting rooms for the UN's resident think-tanks, and the Strangers' Bar -- envoys often pulling cards from the UN Deck to state their government's position on issues that come before the international body.
