International Law is aslo called the law of the Nation may be defined as
the body of rules and principles, of action which are binding upon civilized
states in their relation with one another. It is a true law, it is possesses all
the characteristics of a law. The sources of International law are Treaties,
Custom, the General Principles of law, Judicial Decisions and the writings
of publicists. It is noted that the treaties dealing with the Rule of law to
follow in relations among the nations each other and the law making
treaties are regarded as a sources of International law. A law making
treaty may be defied as a treaty which stipulates new general rules for
future international conduct or confirm, define, or abolish existing
customary or conventional rules of a general character. Custom and
treaties are the two principal sources of international law. But although
these are the principal sources, they cannot be regard as the only
sources. The Statue authorizes the International Court to apply, in
addition to treaties and custom, the general principles of law recognized
by civilized nations.
The fundamental principles of International Law are Montevideo

Rights and Duties of States 1949 and the Doctrine of Equality of States.

territorial jurisdiction, the right to equality in law with other states, the
right of self- defense, the duty to refrain from intervention in the affairs of
other state, the duty of settling disputes peacefully, the duty to refrain

Every nations need to have International Laws. An International Law
plays an essential role in the process of protecting our human rights and
fundamental freedoms. It allows us to live in a society where we are
consequently subject to the rules which regulate relations not only
between humans but between humans and objects. We are daily exposed
to various life situations which are somehow regulated by the law.
International law has its main purpose and role to promote justice,
prosperity and peace all around the world. It is the most powerful weapon
to prevent armed conflicts between countries and help them strengthen
their mutual relations. Due to the fact that the majority of countries
conclude bilateral or multilateral agreements and special treaties
between themselves, International law is a path to governing the
relationship between countries worldwide. Furthermore, international law
is a crucial way to ensure the prosecution of war crimes and gravest
breaches of international humanitarian law. When it comes to the
relationship between international law and human rights, the role of
international law in protecting human rights was strengthened when the
United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of
Human Rights (UDHR) on 10 December 1948. I will make knowledge
sharing in my society about International Law and how it is important for
ours.
