Detailed explanation-1: -In the early years of the United Nations, 11 Territories were placed under the International Trusteeship System (see below for details). All 11 Territories have either become independent States or have voluntarily joined neighboring independent countries.
Detailed explanation-2: -By 1994, all Trust Territories had attained self-government or independence, either as separate States or by joining neighbouring independent countries. The last to do so was the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands-Palau-which was administered by the United States and became the 185th UN Member State.
Detailed explanation-3: -The trusteeship system, like the mandate system, was established on the premise that colonial territories taken from countries defeated in war should not be annexed by the victorious powers but should be administered by a trust country under international supervision until their future status was determined.
