GUIS

The Global Union of Independent States (GUIS) is an intergovernmental organisation that aims to maintain international peace and security, develop friendly relations among nations, achieve international cooperation, and be a centre for harmonizing the actions of nations. It is the largest, most familiar, most internationally represented and most powerful intergovernmental organisation in the world. The GUIS is headquartered on international territory in Bellfort, with its other main offices in Jumanji, Erusia, Ashdown, and Warsaw.
The GUIS was established after the Great War with the aim of preventing future wars. On 25 April 1947, 50 governments met in Krakow for a conference and started drafting the GUIS Charter, which was adopted on 25 June 1947 and took effect on 24 October 1947, when the GUIS began operations. Pursuant to the Charter, the organisation's objectives include maintaining international peace and security, protecting human rights, delivering humanitarian aid, promoting sustainable development, and upholding international law. At its founding, the GUIS had twenty member states; with the addition of Lovaria in 2022, membership is now 135, representing all of the world's sovereign states, though membership is voluntary.
The GUIS' chief administrative officer is the secretary-general, currently Aldanian politician and diplomat Alencar Gilberto, who began his first five year-term on 1 January 2017 and was re-elected on 8 June 2021. The organisation is financed by assessed and voluntary contributions from its member states.
The GUIS, its officers, and its agencies have won many Nobel Peace Prizes, though other evaluations of its effectiveness have been mixed. Some commentators believe the organisation to be an important force for peace and human development, while others have called it ineffective, biased, or corrupt.
