Sure, but unless you sign those treaties no one will recognize you and then it's fair game to take all of your assets.

- sgjohnson 5y agoNot really. There’s actually not a single thing that every country in the world agrees on. There are 2 non-signatories of the Vienna Convention in Diplomatic Relations.
- sudosysgen 5y agoWhile that is true in theory, it's not true in practice. The 2 non-signatories are irrelevant countries.
- sgjohnson 5y agoI dunno, 12 million people live in South Sudan, and irrespective of that, there is not a single thing that every country agrees on. Even the definition of what a country is. How would you define a country? There’s also plenty of “global” treaties that United States is not a party of. Does this make the US a “irrelevant country”?
- sudosysgen 5y agoSouth Sudan is barely a state, as we both know, and is still fairly recent. Give them a few years. The US doesn't accede to these treaties because it has a huge economy and military.
