A quick definition of debellatio:

Debellatio is a fancy word that means when one country wins a war so completely that they get to decide what happens to the other country's land. This can include taking over the land and making it part of their own country. Some people have different ideas about what debellatio really means, but it's often used to talk about what happened to Germany after World War II.

A more thorough explanation:

Debellatio is a way to end a war and take over land when one country has been completely defeated. The winning country can then decide what happens to the defeated country's land. This is also called subjugation. There are three different ways to understand debellatio in international law. The first is when the winning country takes over the defeated country completely. The second is when the defeated country is occupied and a vital part of its government is eliminated, but it's not clear what will happen to the land. The third is when the defeated country is occupied, but it still exists as a country. After World War II, people debated which of these meanings applied to Germany. Example: After World War II, Germany was divided into two parts. The western part was controlled by the United States, Great Britain, and France, while the eastern part was controlled by the Soviet Union. The western part became a democracy and eventually reunited with the eastern part in 1990. This is an example of debellatio because Germany was completely defeated in the war and its land was divided up by the winning countries.

My berkeley paragraph finally disappeared. I definitely think it is just an indicator that they are actively reviewing files, and does not mean anything about A, WL, or Rs

UMN under review! As predicted, decisions are gonna come out early December
Minus those random R decisions from UMN yesterday though right? I wonder what happened there. I don’t think I’ve seen a school start the season out with anything but As on here
almost all of my apps have been UR for 6 weeks at this point I feel exhausted waiting for them to finish
Irvine is being snobby and wont start any review until end of Nov.
Yeah, it’s tough. I’m distracting myself by playing good video games after work :)
im distracting myself by schizo-scrolling r/lawschoolamissions and every conceivable data point on this godforsaken website
it is not working
Haaa I naturally want to do that too. I’m trying to stop. They need a surgeon general’s warning on this site for perspective law students
i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
There aren't many people in my stat range so I pretty much know every result in my range after being on here for a few years
