Abstract

It is not uncommon for one state to cede territory to another, whether through force, peaceful means, or any other means. A state may lose control of a territory and be replaced by another state or a group of states. In such cases, concerning issues may arise, which public international law addresses and attempts to resolve. The legal norms, and the practice that must be followed in order to solve these issues are referred to as "succession of states", which is a theory and practice of international law that has evolved in a new direction, particularly since the end of World war I. In comparison to other institutions of international law, however, this sector still lacks a comprehensive legal structure to govern numerous disputes between nations. The Vienna Convention on the Succession of Nations of 1978 and 1983 is the sole instrument that attempts to govern numerous concerns when new states are formed within the international community. Therefore, this article provides conceptual and practical insights into the subject of international law so that the reader may become acquainted with this institute of international law which is no less important today.
