The League of IDU Nations, also referred to as LIDUN or the League, is a voluntary regional governing body, and intergovernmental organisation, tasked with maintaining peace and security within the International Democratic Union though fostering political, cultural, economic, and social cohesion and cooperation. Through its Security Council, it is also responsible for the enforcement of ceasefires in conflicts that may break out between member states, as well as providing a forum for resolving such conflicts. The League is the successor of the IDU States Assembly, which was dissolved on 21 December 2021. There are currently 34 nations of the International Democratic Union that are members of the body, with the Democratic Republic of Eiria currently serving as the body's President. The organisation is financed through dues levied by the League on its member states biannually. The League is the most powerful regional body that exists in the International Democratic Union.

LIDUN was created on 21 December 2021 immediately following the dissolution of IDU States Assembly; its foundation Charter was formally adopted on 18 May 2023 after eighteen months of debate and drafting. Member states of IDUSA were automatically enrolled as member states of LIDUN upon its creation, unless they had otherwise publicly stated they did not intend to join the new body.

Governed by a Charter, the League is formed of five councils; four committees-of-the-whole, and one council made up of state delegations nominated by the President of the League and confirmed by the body as a whole. The four committees-of-the-whole - the Economic and Development Council, the Political and Human Rights Council, the Social, Cultural, and Scientific Council, and Budgetary and Internal Affairs Council - concern themselves with producing resolutions that express positions on, or guidelines relating to, human rights abuses, space cooperation, trade and economic development, or political instability, among other issues. The fifth council, the Security Council, may enact binding resolutions or sanctions on member states in order to resolve conflicts or deter abusive behaviours, and deploy peacekeeping troops to bring conflicts to a close.

The League of IDU Nations is led by a President, the office of which is held by a member state elected by the body for one calendar year; that member state nominates an individual, usually a citizen of their own country though that is not a requirement, to hold the position of Secretary-General for the same time period. The Secretary-General serves as the ceremonial head of the League. The incumbent Secretary-General is Charles Danton from Eiria.
