Hint:
Following the devastating Second World War, the United Nations (UN) was formed with the aim of preventing future global conflicts.
The Emblem of the UN, designed by Donal McLaughlin, also promotes its main aim.
The organization works to establish international harmony and peace.


Complete answer:
the United Nations:
An international organization named The United Nations was founded in 1945.
It is dedicated to the maintenance of international peace and security while promoting friendly relations between countries. It is the world's largest, most well-known and most powerful intergovernmental organization.

UN’s Emblem Design:
The design of the UN’s emblem resembles a world map shown through the help of azimuthal projection in which the north pole is taken as the centre. This is inscribed in a laurel composed of crossed olive tree branches, in gold on a field of blue and with all water areas in white. The map projection stretches to a latitude of 60 degrees south and contains five concentric circles

Symbolism:
The branches of olive symbolise unity.
The map of the world shows the region of interest to the United Nations in pursuing its primary objective; peace and stability.

Therefore the correct answer is True.

Additional Information:
The United Nations has four main objectives:
Keeping peace in the world;
Developing good ties between nations;
To assist nations to work together to better the lives of the vulnerable, to overcome malnutrition, illness and illiteracy, and to foster respect for the rights and freedoms of each other;
To be a hub for the harmonisation of nations' actions to meet these objectives

Note:
The longest speech in the history of The United Nations was delivered on January 23, 1957. For five hours, Indian representative V.K. Krishna Menon defended India's stance on Kashmir, and he proceeded for three more hours during the next day's session.
As the UN Deputy Secretary-General, Canadian diplomat Louise Frechette in 1999 became the first woman in a position of high responsibility in the organization.
