Pan-World Congress of Nations

The Pan-World Congress of Nations (PWCN or WCN) is a post-war global alliance established to promote world peace. Proposed by Franklin Delano Roosevelt, who was then the US Secretary of State, the organization was founded in 1920 following the Turkish War of Independence. Its temporary goal was to stabilize the Anatolia region and manage the territories occupied by the Entente. The WCN continues to function today, though it has evolved into various regional international factions.
The idea originated with the late President Theodore Roosevelt, who aimed to foster global peace and international cooperation to resolve conflicts. This initiative was part of the Roosevelt Corollary, which allowed the United States to intervene in wars to maintain regional peace. After Theodore Roosevelt's death in 1919, Franklin D. Roosevelt, supported by President John M. Parker, took the lead as Secretary of State and began planning the creation of an international organization to realize this vision. In 1920, following the rapid conclusion of the Turkish War of Independence and the rise of self-determination movements around the former territory of Ottoman empire, the Entente's occupied territories were poorly managed. The United States then approached regional and global powers to discuss the formation of a peace-preserving international organization, addressing issues related to the Ottoman Empire and Arabian states. These discussions began in Lausanne, Switzerland, leading to the establishment of the Pan-World Congress of Nations under the mandate of preserving peace, known as Treaty of Lausanne. The organization played a significant role in various initiatives, such as creating a Kurdish nation-state, establishing the Hashemite's pan-Arabia state (which later saw Hashemite Arabia break away after the Syrian Crisis), and forming a neutral Straits Commission to ensure naval commerce in the Black Sea.
The PWCN played a crucial role in facilitating negotiations to end Allied intervention in the Russian Civil War in 1922, leading to the establishment of the demilitarized Soviet-American-Japanese Tri-Condominium of the Russian Far East. This condominium transitioned into the Russian Republic in 1927 after the Soviets withdrew from condominium in 1924 and the failed 1925 coup d'état led by Admiral Alexander Kolchak and Ataman Gregory Semyonov, who attempted to reestablish the All-Russian Provisional Government. Additionally, the Second Treaty of Riga resulted in the creation of Soviet satellite states in Belarus and Ukraine. Poland advanced its Prometheus project by agreeing to lower war reparations from 30 million rubles to 19 million rubles in gold, establishing Polish-sponsored Ukraine and Belarus, and securing resource concessions in the Rhineland to cover the remaining reparations.
Following the Franco-Syrian War and the Syrian Crisis (marked by British intervention to support the creation of a unified Arab state in Mesopotamia), peace was brokered by the United States. But this event causing the Entente split into two factions: the Second Continental Entente, comprising a French-Italian alliance, and the Imperial Defense Sphere, consisting of Britain and its dominions.
