European law

Read a random definition: Severability clause

A quick definition of European law:

European law refers to the legal system that governs the European Union and its member states. This includes the laws created by the EU, as well as the conventions established by the Council of Europe, such as the European Convention on Human Rights. It also encompasses the laws of other European organizations, such as NATO, and all the bilateral and multilateral agreements in effect. Essentially, European law is the collection of all the legal rules that apply in Europe.

A more thorough explanation:

European law refers to the legal system that governs the European Union and its member states. It includes:

  1. The laws created by the European Union itself
  2. The conventions of the Council of Europe, such as the European Convention on Human Rights
  3. All the laws in effect in Europe, including those of European organizations, NATO, and bilateral/multilateral conventions

For example, the European Union has laws that regulate trade between member states, protect the environment, and ensure the free movement of people and goods. The European Convention on Human Rights protects fundamental rights and freedoms, such as the right to a fair trial and freedom of expression. NATO has agreements on defense and security cooperation among its member countries.

These examples illustrate how European law covers a wide range of legal areas and applies to various organizations and countries in Europe.
