One of the three major military alliances of the world, along with the Axis Powers and the Co-Prosperity Sphere, The alliance was formed in February 1947 after the forced dissolution of the Allied Powers following the Treaty of Dublin, and acts as a successor to the Allies with all its members being former Allied nations.

Following the Treaty of Dublin and the agreed upon dissolution of the Allies the Western Hemisphere existed without any major military alliance protecting it.
