municipal law
c. international law, the law of nations, under which nations are regarded as individual members of a common polity, bound by a common rule of agreement or custom; opposed to municipal law, the rules binding in local jurisdictions (see municipal adj. and n.).The term law of nations (Latin jus gentium) meant in Roman use the rules common to the law of all nations (often coupled with law of nature in sense 9c; so in Shakespeare Henry V ii. iv. 80 and Troilus ii. ii. 184). The transition to the modern sense was facilitated by the appeal to ‘the law of nations’ in relation to such matters as the treatment of ambassadors or the obligation to observe treaties.
