* The World Government of ''Manga/OnePiece'' is made up of 170 countries in the ConstructedWorld united to create order. On one level, it works similar to the UN, hosting negotiations between autonomous countries. However, there's also a government above all of them, who demand hefty support for their enormous political and military apparatus (and membership is often more coerced than voluntarily). Collectively, the World Government basically [[UnitedNationsIsASuperpower the United Nations as a]] HegemonicEmpire.

* The World Government of ''Manga/OnePiece'' is made up of 170 countries in the ConstructedWorld united to create order.

* ''VideoGame/SidMeiersAlphaCentauri'' has the Planetary Council, an UN-like organization that consists of all human factions (the two Progenitor factions in the ''Alien Crossfire'' expansion can't join) except those who have been eliminated or committed major atrocities. The Council can first be called by a faction that has obtained communication frequencies with all others. The first task is always to elect the Planetary Governor. A Governor can call the Council to make a single decision every 10 years, while any other faction can do it every 20 years. For most decisions, the factions have 1 vote each, although the Planetary Governor has veto power. When electing a Planetary Governor or a Supreme Leader (diplomatic victory; only possible in the expansion if no aliens remain), the number of votes each faction has depends on its population and secret projects. Before a vote, it's possible for backroom deals to take place, where one faction agrees to vote a certain way in exchange for something else. For example, the UN Charter is initially in force, meaning all atrocities result in harsh penalties from other factions. The Charter can be repealed (and reinstated later) by a vote in the Council, resulting in such actions being considered normal parts of warfare (except the use of [[FantasticNuke Planet Busters]]).

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'' has the Democratic Order Of Planets ([[InherentlyFunnyWords DOOP]]). They do, however, employ Twenty-Five-Star General [[MilesGloriosus/WesternAnimation Zapp Brannigan]], meaning their efforts at peacekeeping and diplomacy are... somewhat hampered. He once tried to have an alien species sign a 'Peace Treaty' that was actually a declaration of war.

* ''WesternAnimation/LegendOfKorra'': In the first season, Republic City (founded as a place where citizens of each ElementalNation could live together) is governed by a council with a representative of each nation (Fire Nation, Earth Kingdom, Air Nomads, and both Water Tribes). With the exception of Tarrlok and Tenzin, they don't seem to do much, which explains why the following seasons have a president instead. [[TheDitherer Not that he does much better]].

* ''LightNovel/ThatTimeIGotReincarnatedAsASlime'': The Council of the West is basically a medieval version of the UN, albeit with more actual authority and power. It's made up of many western human nations that originally banded together as a cooperative force against monsters but eventually grew into a political force meant to counter the growing power of the [[TheEmpire Eastern Empire]] and provide the western nations a bulwark against the Demon Lords while having power over its members' international affairs and meditating over internal conflicts. It doesn't technically have a standing army of its own (though it can call upon the militaries of its member nations in times of crisis), but rather relies on the mutual cooperation of the AdventureGuild, which they are the main funder of in exchange for being able to call upon its members as a police force (in fact, both the Council's and the Free Guild's headquarters are located in Ingracia just to drive this home). This funding in turn comes from the contributions provided by the member nations, which varies depending on how many councilors said nation provides to represent their interests (in other words, the more you're willing to pay, the greater your voice in international matters). This bloc does ''not'' include Dwargon, Sarion, or Ruberios, as all have sufficient military and economic strength to act independently of the Council, but they maintain cordial relations if nothing else. Joining the Council is a marked interest of Rimuru, as doing so would open plenty of doors to the international trade with humans he craves [[spoiler:and thus it's a major goal of the Rosso family to prevent him from doing so (or at least, only on their terms), as they recognize that Tempest's prosperity would easily lead to it gaining disproportionate power on the human nations that would threaten their own power.]]

* The Franchise/{{DCAU}} has a NoCelebritiesWereHarmed version of the United Nations, which is called the World Assembly and has its headquarters in Metropolis, as seen in the ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague'' episode "The Enemy Below". Incidentally, the ''real'' UN had appeared at least once in an episode of ''WesternAnimation/SupermanTheAnimatedSeries''.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'' has the Democratic Order Of Planets ([[InherentlyFunnyWords DOOP]]), seen in the page image. They do, however, employ Twenty-Five-Star General [[MilesGloriosus/WesternAnimation Zapp Brannigan]], meaning their efforts at peacekeeping and diplomacy are... somewhat hampered. He once tried to have an alien species sign a 'Peace Treaty' that was actually a declaration of war.

* In ''VideoGame/{{Civilization}} V'', after a civilization meets all the others and researches the Printing Press tech, the World Congress is founded (you can change the name to whatever you want, though). Every civilization starts with 1 delegate, but the host civ receives an extra delegate. The number of delegates also depends on the civ's current tech era and whether the United Nations wonder has been built. From the Industrial era onward, each allied city-state also grants a delegate to the Congress. Delegates are also granted to a civ that builds the Forbidden Palace wonder and for placing spies as diplomats into other civs' capitals. Enacting a World Religion or World Ideology means that any civ that follows those tenets also grants 2 additional delegates. Each session, the host (and one other civ) can propose a new resolution. The next session, the civs vote on the two proposals by distributing their delegates into the "aye"/"nay" selections for each proposal. A delegate can't be used on both resolutions at the same time. When selecting a proposal, the info box will let you know which civs will be happy/angry over this. Naturally, this can seriously affect your diplomatic standing with the other civs. You can trade for votes using the diplomacy screen, but only with civs with which you have diplomats. A civ that has pledged to vote a certain way cannot go back on its word.

* The ''Series/StargateSG1'' episode "The Torment of Tantalus" speaks of the Alliance of Four Great Races between the [[BigGood Asgard]], [[NeglectfulPrecursors Ancients]], [[RiddleForTheAges Furlings]], and [[PerfectPacifistPeople Nox]]. Ernest Littlefield's notes called it a "United Nations of the stars," but as the Asgard are the only remaining members to interact with the cast on a regular basis little is known beyond that.

* In ''Webcomic/{{Terra}}'' the creation of one of these is a long-term goal of the Resistance. As it stands two powerful factions are fighting over everybody else's heads and everyone else is getting thoroughly screwed.

* ''Literature/TheCentenalCycle features Information. It is essentially a hybrid between Snopes, Google, and the United Nations, combining the power of the latter two. They even have peacekeeping squads that are engaged in both diplomacy and education.

This can fall practically anywhere on the scales of [[SlidingScaleOfIdealismVersusCynicism Idealism Versus Cynicism]] and RomanticismVersusEnlightenment. In some portrayals the Fictional United Nations is hamstrung by applications of {{Realpolitik}} and greed, with big, powerful countries essentially free to ignore it without much consequence and run riot over weaker polities. In other cases the author depicts the job of keeping the peace between nations as tricky but not impossible, with the participants more inclined towards EnlightenedSelfInterest and willing to work together for the greater good, allowing for {{Aesop}}s and/or positive moments when peoples of many tribes and creeds come together and do something awesome.

The Council can first be called by a faction that has obtained communication frequencies with all others. The first task is always to elect the Planetary Governor.

The concept is similar to TheAlliance, but can contain both [[GoodRepublicEvilEmpire good and evil members]], which provides a story set there with a source of conflict. Also, alliances are often just a treaty or even an informal agreement making nations allies, whereas here there is a formal governing apparatus. However, unlike TheFederation, the Fictional United Nations is not treated as a single state: Individual members are still sovereign nations and may take action unilaterally if they feel the need. It also tends to have no military of its own, and operations ordered by its (usually) ruling council are executed by the armies of member states.

** The name first came up in the first episode of ''Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration''. It made a human-rights declaration in 2036, and from the context it had collapsed by 2079.

* The Website/AlternateHistoryDotCom timeline ''[[https://www.alternatehistory.com/forum/threads/washington-burns-a-story-of-alternate-america.413571/ Washington Burns]]'' sees a UN analogue called the Global Peace Council established after the Global War of the late 30s-early 40s. Aside from the different name, and being based in UsefulNotes/{{Rome}} instead of New York, it functions in much the same way as the real life UN.

* In ''VideoGame/{{Stellaris}}'', the 2.6 update and the ''Federations'' DLC, the Galactic Community can be formed after at least one empire has met half of all other empires, and members can vote on various resolutions and sanctions. The number of votes an empire has is determined by their Diplomatic Weight, which is determined based on economic strength, population, tech level, and military strength, with each contributing more or less to Diplomatic Weight depending on what resolutions have passed. The Galactic Community can also create a Galactic Council of the three most powerful empires (resolutions can increase the Council size up to five or shrink it down to just one) based on diplomatic weight that can call emergency votes , denounce other empires, and veto resolutions depending on what powers they're granted.
** DownplayedTrope with the UNE ([[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin United Nations of Earth]]). As their name and origins in Sol III indicates, they are the real life United Nations, though somewhere before 2200, they became [[UnitedNationsIsASuperpower superpower]].

** It should be noted that the national representation seems to be a more recent development (a flash back to what seems to be the original council explicitly shows the lone Air Nomad national not on the council) and at all times, seems to have a mix of benders and non-benders. Some fans have argued that the odd balancing of the representation (Earth and Fire have a vote a piece, Water has two votes, and Air has one vote that represents what amounts to just above a Nuclear Family in a city the size of New York City) should have provided some ample conflict [[TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot that was never seen]].
