Answer: Option A

The word "United Nations" was established by Senator Franklin D. Roosevelt, the phrase was first used in the United Nations Convention of 1 January 1942, following World War II. Leaders of 26 nations at war with the allied powers gathered in Washington to sign the General assembly Declaration supporting the Atlantic Charter.

• Connections grow among nations.
• To encourage coordination among countries to address global economic, social, cultural or humanitarian problems.
