historic bay

Read a random definition: jus dispositivum

A quick definition of historic bay:

Historic Bay: A bay is a body of water that is connected to the sea and is surrounded by land. In international law, the country that owns the land around the bay has the right to enforce its laws in the bay. A historic bay is a special type of bay that a country claims as its own, even though it might not meet the usual definition of a bay. This claim is based on the country's long-standing tradition of asserting control over the bay.

A more thorough explanation:

A historic bay is an inlet of the sea that is subject to the jurisdiction of the coastal country to enforce its environmental, immigration, and customs laws. This means that the country has the authority to regulate activities that take place within the bay, such as fishing, shipping, and tourism.

There are also some bays that are considered historic bays. These bays have a unique shape that would not normally be considered a bay subject to the coastal country's jurisdiction. However, the coastal country has traditionally asserted and maintained dominion over these bays.

For example, the Bay of Fundy in Canada is a historic bay. It has a unique shape that would not normally be considered a bay subject to Canada's jurisdiction. However, Canada has traditionally asserted and maintained dominion over the bay, and has the authority to regulate activities that take place within it.

Another example is the Bay of Bengal in South Asia. It is subject to the jurisdiction of the coastal countries, such as India, Bangladesh, and Myanmar, to enforce their environmental, immigration, and customs laws. These countries have the authority to regulate activities that take place within the bay, such as fishing, shipping, and tourism.
