A quick definition of bay:

Term: BAY

Definition: A bay is a part of the ocean that is surrounded by land on three sides. The country that owns the land around the bay has the right to make and enforce laws about things like the environment, immigration, and customs within the bay. Sometimes, a bay may be considered historic, which means that even though it doesn't meet the usual definition of a bay, the country has claimed it for a long time and has control over it.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A bay is an inlet of the sea that is subject to the jurisdiction of the coastal country. This means that the country can enforce its environmental, immigration, and customs laws in that area.

Example: The Chesapeake Bay is a large bay on the east coast of the United States. The United States government has jurisdiction over this bay and can enforce its laws there.

Explanation: The Chesapeake Bay is an example of a bay that is subject to the jurisdiction of the United States. This means that the United States can enforce its laws in that area, such as laws related to pollution, immigration, and customs.

Example: The Bay of Bengal is a large bay in the northeastern part of the Indian Ocean. The countries surrounding the bay, such as India and Bangladesh, have jurisdiction over their respective coastal areas of the bay.

Explanation: The Bay of Bengal is an example of a bay that is subject to the jurisdiction of the countries surrounding it. This means that each country can enforce its laws in its respective coastal area of the bay.

Example: The historic Bay of Fundy is a bay on the east coast of Canada. Canada has traditionally asserted and maintained dominion over this bay, even though it may not meet the criteria to be considered a bay subject to jurisdiction.

Explanation: The historic Bay of Fundy is an example of a bay that is subject to the jurisdiction of Canada due to its long-standing unilateral claim over it. This means that Canada can enforce its laws in that area, even though it may not meet the criteria to be considered a bay subject to jurisdiction.
