Violation of Sovereignty and war

Violation of sovereignty and war
Theoretically all the states of the world are equal. This equality arises out of the concept of sovereignty of states over its land, resources, population as well as in dealing with other states. In practice the terms like super powers, great powers, industrial powers, tigers, developed, under developed or third world countries tend to indicate the presence of some sort of inequality among the states but these are misleading terms regarding the concept of equality on the basis of sovereignty. Sovereignty of states is an indivisible whole and cannot be compared of one nation with that of the other. There can be no such terms like lesser or greater sovereignty, weak or strong sovereignty, complete or incomplete sovereignty, deficient or ample sovereignty, growing or full grown sovereignty. In one way it can be compared to the right of vote; as the right of vote of a poor or rich is equal, that of a youth of 20 (depending upon the national law fixing the minimum age for adult franchise) and that of an old man of 90 is equal, that of a literate and illiterate is equal, that of a male and female is equal. As the sanctity of vote has in its turn developed civilized and tolerant societies similarly the road to the future peaceful and war free world lies in the practice in the sanctity of the sovereignty of the states.
        Violating, infringing, threatening and ignoring the sovereignty of states has been single major cause of the past wars and conflicts. The world of today has to learn this. In particular more developed and advanced and powerful states having greater military strength owe it more than the weaker ones to respect the sovereignty as they have more capacity to bull doze the sovereignty of smaller states.
        Sovereignty can be defined as auto limitation. It means the states have consented to follow international law because they have limited their powers to themselves. It also means that states cannot challenge the action of one state regarding its own jurisdiction.

        An interesting example of the sovereignty is that of the Vatican City, where the Pope resides. The Government of Italy in the year 1871 passed an Act granting privileges and immunities to the Pope as are enjoyed by heads of states. Later on in the year 1929 a treaty was concluded between the Government of Italy and the Pope according to which Vatican City comprising of 100 acres of land was recognized as a sovereign state and the Pope was also granted the right to enter upon diplomatic relations with other nations. Now Vatican City is an International person, but a neutral state, it is very small in area but it possesses all the rights and duties of a neutral state.
