free seas

Read a random definition: oath of abjuration

A quick definition of free seas:

Free Seas: The term "sea" refers to the ocean, a large body of saltwater that can be either landlocked or part of the open ocean. The "high seas" or "free seas" are the parts of the ocean that are beyond the control of any country. In the past, this was considered to be 3 miles from the coast, but now it is generally accepted to be 12 miles. The 1982 U.N. Convention on the Law of the Sea established a 200-mile exclusive economic zone for coastal shores.

A more thorough explanation:

Free seas refer to the open ocean or high seas beyond the jurisdiction of any country. This means that no country has control over these areas.

For example, the Mediterranean Sea is a large landlocked part of the ocean, while the rough sea refers to the ocean swell. A sea of documents means an extremely large or extended quantity of documents.

Under traditional international law, the high seas began 3 miles from the coast, but today, the distance is generally accepted to be 12 miles. Coastal shores now have a 200-mile exclusive economic zone under the 1982 U.N. Convention on the Law of the Sea.

Overall, free seas are areas of the ocean that are not under the control of any country and are open for navigation and other activities.

There’s someone I found on here with the username threeoutchange and if my understanding is correct that’s a reference to the debut album by a pretty cool 90s-00s Japanese band called Supercar. I geeked a little
