===== History of The PeaceKeeping Forces of Urth =====
+
Peacekeeping by the PKFU is a role held by the Department of Peacekeeping Operations as "a unique and dynamic instrument developed by the organization as a way to help countries torn by conflict to create the conditions for lasting peace." It is distinguished from peacebuilding, peacemaking, and peace enforcement although The PKFU does acknowledge that all activities are "mutually reinforcing" and that overlap between them is frequent in practice.
−
The PK-FU was created when 4 nations' decided to help save civilians and see peace across the world in war-torn regions. The current and first operation of the PK-FU is in Osnek, Latianburg after the nuclear attack on it. The drafting and ratification of the formation of the PK-FU was done in the Furnifold capital city of McLendal. Additonally, the headquarters of the PK-FU will be built and finished there in a couple months. Soon after the creation of the PK-FU, the Second Republic of Tretrid and the Oan Isles applied for membership in the PK-FU and were accepted.

===== PK Constitution etc.2013 =====
+
Peacekeepers monitor and observe peace processes in post-conflict areas and assist ex-combatants in implementing the peace agreements they may have signed. Such assistance comes in many forms, including confidence-building measures, power-sharing arrangements, electoral support, strengthening the rule of law, and economic and social development. Accordingly, PKFU peacekeepers (often referred to as White Berets or White Helmets because of their light White berets or helmets) can include soldiers, police officers, and civilian personnel.

Most of these operations are established and implemented by the PKFU itself, with troops serving under PK operational control. In these cases, peacekeepers remain members of their respective armed forces, and do not constitute an independent "PKFU army," as the PKFU does not have such a force. In cases where direct PKFU involvement is not considered appropriate or feasible, the Council authorizes regional organizations such as coalitions of willing countries to undertake peacekeeping or peace-enforcement tasks.

===Formation===
  
−
-The PK-FU can have control of a DMZ for up to 15 years.
+
Once a peace treaty has been negotiated, the parties involved might ask the PKFU for a peacekeeping force to oversee various elements of the agreed upon plan. This is often done because a group controlled by the PKFU is less likely to follow the interests of any one party, since it itself is controlled by many groups, namely the 7-member Security Council and the intentionally diverse PKFU Secretariat.

-During civil wars
+
If the Security Council approves the creation of a mission, then the Department of Peacekeeping Operations begins planning for the necessary elements. At this point, the senior leadership team is selected. The department will then seek contributions from member nations. Since the PKFU has no standing force or supplies, it must form ad hoc coalitions for every task undertaken. Doing so results in both the possibility of failure to form a suitable force, and a general slowdown in procurement once the operation is in the field.
  
−
-Human rights abuse during war
+
While the peacekeeping force is being assembled, a variety of diplomatic activities are being undertaken by PK staff. The exact size and strength of the force must be agreed to by the government of the nation whose territory the conflict is on. The Rules of Engagement must be developed and approved by both the parties involved and the Security Council. These give the specific mandate and scope of the mission (e.g. when may the peacekeepers, if armed, use force, and where may they go within the host nation). Often, it will be mandated that peacekeepers have host government minders with them whenever they leave their base. This complexity has caused problems in the field.

* 1.2 Human Rights
+
'''Financing'''
−
International human rights law is an integral part of the normative frame-
+
−
work FOR Urth peacekeeping operations. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which sets the cornerstone of international human
+
−
rights standards, emphasizes that human rights and fundamental freedoms
+
−
are universal and guaranteed to everybody. Urth peacekeeping
+
−
operations should be conducted in full respect of human rights and should
+
−
seek to advance human rights through the implementation of their mandates .
+
  
−
Urth peacekeeping personnel – whether military, police or civilian
+
The financial resources of Peacekeeping operations are the collective responsibility of PKFU Member States. Decisions about the establishment, maintenance or expansion of peacekeeping operations are taken by the Security Council. According to PK Charter every Member State is legally obligated to pay their respective share for peacekeeping. Peacekeeping expenses are divided by the General Assembly based upon a formula established by Member States which takes into account the relative economic wealth of Member States among other things.
−
– should act in accordance with international human rights law and under-
+
−
stand how the implementation of their tasks intersects with human rights.  
+
−
Peacekeeping personnel should strive to ensure that they do not become
+
−
perpetrators of human rights abuses. They must be able to recognize human
+
−
rights violations or abuse, and be prepared to respond appropriately within
+
−
the limits of their mandate and their competence. Urth peacekeeping personnel should respect human rights in their dealings with colleagues
+
−
and with local people, both in their public and in their private lives. Where
+
−
they commit abuses, they should be held accountable.
+
  
−
* 1.3 International Humanitarian Law
+
'''Structure'''
−
International humanitarian law is known also as “the law of war” or “the law
+
−
of armed conflict,” and restricts the means and methods of armed conflict.
+
−
International humanitarian law is contained in the four Urth Conventions of 1960 and their two Additional Protocols of 1999, as well as in rules
+
−
regulating the means and methods of combat. International humanitarian
+
−
law also includes conventions and treaties on the protection of cultural property and the environment during armed conflict, as well as protection of
+
−
victims of conflict.
+
−
International humanitarian law is designed to protect persons who do not
+
−
participate, or are no longer participating, in the hostilities; and it maintains the fundamental rights of civilians, victims and non-combatants in
+
−
an armed conflict. It is relevant to Urth peacekeeping operations
+
−
because these missions are often deployed into post-conflict environments
+
−
where violence may be ongoing or conflict could reignite. Additionally, in
+
−
post-conflict environments there are often large civilian populations that
+
−
have been targeted by the warring parties, prisoners of war and other vulnerable groups to whom the Urth Conventions or other humanitarian law
+
−
would apply in the event of further hostilities.
+
−
Urth peacekeepers must have a clear understanding of the principles and rules of international humanitarian law and observe them in situations where they apply.
+
  
−
* 1.4 Security Council Mandates
+
A  peacekeeping mission has three power centers. The first is the Special Representative of the Secretary-General, the official leader of the mission. This person is responsible for all political and diplomatic activity, overseeing relations with both the parties to the peace treaty and the PKFU member-states in general. They are often a senior member of the Secretariat. The second is the Force Commander, who is responsible for the military forces deployed. They are a senior officer of their nation's armed services, and are often from the nation committing the highest number of troops to the project. Finally, the Chief Administrative Officer oversees supplies and logistics, and coordinates the procurement of any supplies needed.
−
Urth peacekeeping operations are deployed on the basis of a mandate from the PK-FU Security Council. The tasks that a Urth
+
−
peacekeeping operation will be required to perform are set out in the Security Council mandate. Security Council mandates differ from situation to
+
−
situation, depending on the nature of the conflict and the specific challenges
+
−
it presents. Since PK-FU peacekeeping operations are normally deployed to support the implementation of a ceasefire or a more comprehensive
+
−
peace agreement, Security Council mandates are influenced by the nature
+
−
and content of the agreement reached by the parties to the conflict.  
+
−
Security Council mandates also reflect the broader normative debates shaping the international environment. In this regard, there are a number of  
+
−
cross-cutting, thematic tasks that are regularly assigned to PK-FU
+
−
peacekeeping operations on the basis of the following landmark Security

The PK-FU is run by a council consisting of all of its member nations to vote on the apporvation or negation on PK operations. In order for an operation to be approved or negated, the operation must have 3/4 of the council members voting FOR or AGAINST the operation. If there is no 3/4, the stalemate will be discussed in council.

Peacekeeping by the PKFU is a role held by the Department of Peacekeeping Operations as "a unique and dynamic instrument developed by the organization as a way to help countries torn by conflict to create the conditions for lasting peace." It is distinguished from peacebuilding, peacemaking, and peace enforcement although The PKFU does acknowledge that all activities are "mutually reinforcing" and that overlap between them is frequent in practice.

Peacekeepers monitor and observe peace processes in post-conflict areas and assist ex-combatants in implementing the peace agreements they may have signed. Such assistance comes in many forms, including confidence-building measures, power-sharing arrangements, electoral support, strengthening the rule of law, and economic and social development. Accordingly, PKFU peacekeepers (often referred to as White Berets or White Helmets because of their light White berets or helmets) can include soldiers, police officers, and civilian personnel.

PKFU Security Council has the power and responsibility to take collective action to maintain international peace and security.

Most of these operations are established and implemented by the PKFU itself, with troops serving under PK operational control. In these cases, peacekeepers remain members of their respective armed forces, and do not constitute an independent "PKFU army," as the PKFU does not have such a force. In cases where direct PKFU involvement is not considered appropriate or feasible, the Council authorizes regional organizations such as coalitions of willing countries to undertake peacekeeping or peace-enforcement tasks.

Once a peace treaty has been negotiated, the parties involved might ask the PKFU for a peacekeeping force to oversee various elements of the agreed upon plan.
