In the United Nations, countries vote on important decisions. Most have one vote, like a classroom where everyone gets one say. But some groups of countries, called blocs, get more votes together so they can agree on things more easily. It’s kind of like having teams in a game who all decide together how to play.
Examples
- A classroom where one student represents each country, and some students are allowed to team up and vote together.
- Some teams can talk more quickly and decide as one group during games, giving them an advantage.
- In a club meeting, most people have one vote, but the leaders all agree first before voting.
