did england help start the UN Absolutely — England played a major role in the founding of the United Nations, though technically it was the United Kingdom as a whole (which includes England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland). πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Here's how the UK helped shape the UN: Early Visionaries: British Prime Minister Winston Churchill and U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt co-authored the Atlantic Charter in 1941, which laid the groundwork for the UN’s principles. Key Conferences: The UK was deeply involved in pivotal wartime meetings like the Tehran, Yalta, and San Francisco conferences, where the structure and goals of the UN were hammered out. Founding Member: The UK was one of the original 51 countries that signed the UN Charter in 1945 and is a permanent member of the UN Security Council. First UN Meetings: The very first sessions of the UN General Assembly and Security Council were held in London in 1946 — a symbolic nod to Britain’s influence. So yes, England — as part of the UK — was absolutely central to the birth of the UN.
