The ICJ
The ICJ: A Layman's Explanation by Christopher Schuller ICJ President 2002, 2003 The International Court of Justice, located in The Hague, Netherlands, is the judicial arm of the United Nations.

Pagsilang ng demokrasya Demokrasya- pinakadakilang ambag ng mga Athenian sa, na nagmula sa wikang Greek na Demos at Kratia na nangangahulugang pamamahala ng tao, uri ng pamahalaan na pinamumunuan ng mga mamayan ng bansa/ estado.

Mga nagtaguyod ng demokrasya sa Athens Draco- isang aristokratang nagpagawa ng unang nasusulat na kodigo ng mga batas (Draconian Code) noong 621BCE dahil dito nagkaroon ng mahusay na batayan ang mga Athenian sa mga ipinapatupad na batas.
