All 193 Member States of the United Nations are represented in this unique forum to discuss and work together on a wide array of international issues covered by the UN Charter, such as development, peace and security, international law, etc. In September, all the Members meet in the General Assembly Hall in New York for the annual General Assembly session"

We decorated our booth mostly with gold and black since those two colours were the main colours during the ancient Egypt. We also make our booth as a museum containing statues of the ancient Egpyt famous people and some artifacts. What's more interesting, we also had Egyptian foods which were prepared by one of my teammates' mother. It was super duper yummy!
