Description |
Typically, the common feature is that the dependency does not conduct foreign affairs, and relegates this authority to the sovereign state. But otherwise, it is largely or completely autonomous relative to the administrative subdivisions. Examples include Puerto Rico (U.S.), Guam (U.S.), Greenland (Denmark), French Polynesia (France), and Falkland Islands (United Kingdom). |

Description |
per the definition of 'contiguous' of "being in actual contact : touching along a boundary or at a point", these land masses share boundaries with other land masses that are part of the same continent, and thus are not surrounded by water like an island. At some point, we need an 'adjacent to' relation if BFO doesn't provide it. One question is whether this class encompasses fiat parts of islands. |

We note that the term 'geography' is also applied to the Earth's moon, Mars, Venus, and possibly even other moons and planets in our own solar system and beyond. Thus, we are attempting to define things generally enough that they could be reused for the geographical entities/features on the Moon, Mars, other planets, exoplanets, other natural satellites (a.k.a moons), asteroids, etc. |

Description |
Sovereignty, in the legal sense, is acquired by a state upon receiving recognition by the international community. However, without specifying that this recognition can only be acquired through full membership to the United Nations, a non-arbitrary standard would be difficult, if not impossible, to come by since there are a good many sovereign states whose sovereignty is not explicitly recognized by one or more states. Given that the de facto criteria for sovereignty must be achieved prior to membership to the UN General Assembly and that every member therein is considered to be "international recognized," full membership to the UN is a sufficient criterion for de jure sovereignty. This can be further justified by noting that, in cases where UN member X claims to not recognize the sovereign status of UN member Y, the diplomatic and political behavior of member X towards Y nevertheless tacitly implies that it recognizes Y's sovereignty. |

Relational qualities are qualities that hold between multiple entities. Normal (monadic) qualities such as the shape of a eyeball exist purely as a quality of that eyeball. A relational quality such as sensitivity to light is a quality of that eyeball (and connecting nervous system) as it relates to incoming light waves/particles. |
