'''The United Nations''' (usually '''the UN''') is the primary governing body for humanity after the fall of capitalism in the early mid 2300s. While its structure is much as it is today, the meanings of a few divisions have changed over the centuries.

== The Procurement Division ==
The UNPD is responsible for acquiring good and materials for UN projects. As the relevance of the UN increased later in the 24th century, the division has expanded to become the interface between the population and the library economy that followed in the wake of capitalism. They manage access to large, dangerous, or difficult to manufacture goods, and also now provide services such as connecting those with specialized needs to those who can meet those needs, acting as a sort of middle-man. Despite this, interaction with the UNPD is not a requirement, and individuals or organizations can connect as they wish. Rather, it acts as an easy centralized network that most people wind up using because it works well enough.

In this role, the UNPD is more of an organizer than a producer. Work is not necessarily done in-house, but is rather contracted out to others offering services such as logistics or production, including with other UN departments.

== The Peacekeepers ==
The Peacekeepers are the defensive/preventative force within the UN, often being seen as a role akin to, say, mall cops. They do not expect to get into any sort of conflict, and will often live or stay temporarily on stations and larger ships as a way form of added security.

== IRIS ==
Named after the Internal Resolution for International Security passed during the strife surrounding the fall of capitalism, IRIS was formed after the dissolution of the UN Defense Council as the military arm of the organization. It was seen as a complicated answer to a terrible problem, and its success originally resulted in a boom in nationalism and a return to oldschool 1920s-style imperialism, and it was not until the UN began taking human rights seriously in the latter part of the 2300s into the 2400s that IRIS returned as a liberationary force. While it was disarmed during the peacetime that followed and set as a reserve force for much of the 25th century, the growing [[The Energy Crisis|energy crisis]] has led to rearmament.

Despite its capabilities as a military organization, for the most part, IRIS offers humanitarian aid on an industrial scale, combining manpower and organizational powers in order to get work done. Additionally, it acts as an emergency response force, with many members being more akin to firefighters and paramedics.
