What UN division settles legal disputes between member nations and is also called the World Court?

• A. World Court
• B. International Court of Justice
• C. United Nations Security Council
• D. European Court of Human Rights

Answer: (B)

The main idea here is identifying the United Nations body that settles legal disputes between nations. This is the International Court of Justice, the UN’s principal judicial organ. It settles disputes between states that consent to its jurisdiction and can issue binding rulings. It’s also commonly known as the World Court. The other options describe different UN or regional bodies: the Security Council handles peace and security measures rather than judicial rulings; the European Court of Human Rights is a regional court under a European organization, not the UN; and the term World Court is simply a nickname for the ICJ, not a separate UN division.
