The First Geneva Convention (1864) is one of the earliest formulations of international law. International law is the set of rules generally regarded and accepted as binding in relations between states and between nations. It serves as a framework for the practice of stable and organized international relations.

Laws can be made by a collective legislature or by a single legislator (resulting in statutes), by the executive through decrees and regulations, or by judges through binding precedent (normally in common law jurisdictions).nternational law can refer to three things: public international law, private international law or conflict of laws and the law of supranational organisations. 1  Public international law concerns relationships between sovereign nations.
