WI, instead of being basically a club run in perpetuity by the five nations that happened to dominate immediately after WWII, the UN had been set up as a much more democratic institution?
Say that each member state were guaranteed at least one delegate in the General Assembly, and also one delegate for every 10 million people in its population. So for example, today Lichtenstein would have 1 delegate, the USA would have 30, China 100, and the entire assembly about 600.
There could also be an upper chamber, where each country has one vote.
And no country has permanent veto power.
Effects?
