The Association of North American Nations (Amerikaens: Verbond van Nördamerikaense Staeten, Spanish: Asociación de Países de Norteamérica, French: Association des pays du nord de l'Amérique, Corean: 북미國가연맹) is a political and economic union of seven member states in northern America established in 1951. It was originally a collection of bilateral and multilateral treaties crafted to oppose European influence in northern America.
Today, the organisation aims to ensure the security and political stability of its constituents, maintain a united economic market, enforce monetary regulations, and to propogate legal homogenisation. It is said to have multiple unique characteristics, making it truly sui generis.

Politics, law, structure and governance
The Association of North American Nations (ANAN) operates through a hybrid system of supranational and intergovernmental decision-making, and according to the principles of conferral (which says that it should act only within the limits of the competencies conferred on it by the treaties) and of subsidiarity (which says that it should act only where an objective cannot be sufficiently achieved by the member states acting alone).
Generally speaking, the actions of ANAN can be classified into two groups of actions. These two actions are civil actions, while the other actions can be classified under “military” actions, this is due to ANAN her origins as a defensive alliance. The difference in the type of actions lies in the fact that “Military actions” can be undertaken without a civil agreement, rather they are decided by the military council of ANAN.
Civilian structure
