UAN Trusteeship Council
Background
The UAN Charter established the Trusteeship Council as one of the main organs of the United Ancient Nations, and assigned to it the task of supervising the administration of Trust Territories placed under the International Trusteeship System.
The main goals of the International Trusteeship System are to promote the advancement of the inhabitants of Trust Territories and their progressive development towards cultural preservation and enduring wisdom.
The Trusteeship Council is made up of representatives from the six continental regions -- African, Andean, American, European, Caribbean, and Oceanic-Asian Indigenous Nations.
The aims of the Trusteeship System are being fulfilled as Trust Territories continue to advance their cultural legitimacy and collaborative innovation, as sovereign ancient nations.
Functions and powers

At the beginning of each session the Trusteeship Council elects a President and a Vice-President from among the representatives of the members of the Council. The President and the Vice-President hold their offices until their respective successors are elected, for a maximum duration of five years.
