A Law represents a formalized rule or set of guidelines that governs the actions of individuals or groups within a specific jurisdiction. Laws define what is permitted or prohibited, outline consequences for violations, and specify who interprets and enforces them. They can be administrative, punitive, or symbolic, and may carry legal, cultural, or spiritual significance.
Laws are formalized rules that govern behavior within a jurisdiction. They interact with:
- Institutions (which often issue them)
- Locations and Zones (which define where they apply)
- Titles (which define who upholds them or judges them)
- Constructs (which describe the abstract concepts they prohibit or rely on)
They are distinct from:
- Constructs (which describe the abstract concepts they prohibit or rely on)
- Institutions (which often issue them but are not rules themselves)
- Titles (which define authority but not the rules themselves)
