The idea of the side project can be traced back to the early 2000s, but it was not until 2008 that United Nations took shape.
 Geoff Rickly has said the band started over tequila with Daryl Palumbo.
 At the start of the band, all members except for Rickly were under contracts with other record labels and were not legally permitted to work in projects released by another, making it difficult for the official lineup of the band to be well known.
 However some members from the band's original line-up have been revealed through interviews and social media posts, such as Daryl Palumbo, Jonah Bayer and Lukas Previn.
 Since Rickly was the only member whose primary band was not under contract, his name is the only one that could legally appear in press materials.
 Press photos of the band released in 2008 depict four people wearing Ronald Reagan masks.
