What was the number of original members of the United Nations?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer D
The United Nations had 51 original members. Fifty countries signed the Charter at San Francisco on 26 June 1945, and Poland signed soon afterwards as the 51st original member; India was among them.
The figure 50 counts only the countries present at San Francisco, so it is the likeliest trap.
