Explanation

The correct chronological order is: I (UN Charter, 1945), II (UDHR, 1948), IV (ICERD, 1965), III (ICESCR/ICCPR - though the option is truncated, this refers to the 1966 Covenants). The UN Charter was established in 1945 as the foundational document. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights followed in 1948. The International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination was adopted in 1965, and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (along with ICESCR) was adopted in 1966.
