Allied Control Commission

The Allied Control Commission was a governing body established after World War II, primarily to oversee the administration of various countries liberated from Axis powers. Most notably active in Germany and Japan, it aimed to implement Allied policies, ensure disarmament, and facilitate democratic governance. The commission was composed of representatives from the Allied nations, such as the United States, Soviet Union, and United Kingdom. Its purpose was to facilitate reconstruction, manage war crime trials, and promote political stability, helping these nations transition from wartime to peaceful governance as part of the broader post-war order.
