The law that governs relationships between nation states. It is based principally on custom and treaties; there is no worldwide international legislature, and thus the enforcement and interpretation of international law may pose problems. International law is also known as public international law, as distinct from private international law which regulates, in cases involving citizens of two or more countries, which country's courts and laws should be applied ('international law', Crystal Reference Encyclopedia.
