US = organisation, Brit = organization.

Like color and colour, or armor and armour. Cowboys and knights spell their english differently.

Okay... I looked in all of my dictionaries and didn't find it with an "ise". Excuse me for just being American. :D

If you read what Baluski posted, you would have known it's differently spelled for different countries. If you were to spell it like this in other countries, you'd probably be thought of as the illiterate. ;)

and p.s I already posted the text issue about the souls event. >.>

That must be the case
The root word is organize not organise, I'm glad you use a dictionary but surely you can spell at a 2nd grade level  ;)

You must be in second grade... or you probably didn't read that wikipedia article at all.

Different countries = (in this case) slightly different languages = different spellings.

Just to save you the trouble

Quote from:  the article
-ise / -ize

American spelling accepts only -ize endings in most cases, such as organize, recognize, and realize. British usage accepts both -ize and the more French-looking -ise (organise, recognise, realise). However, the -ize spelling is now rarely used in the UK in the mass media and newspapers, and is hence often incorrectly regarded as an Americanism

Anyway, let's discontinue the argument, people spell stuff different. Case solved. :D
