	Suzerainty - LoveToKnow 1911
		On the whole, usage seems to favour this distinction: while a protectorate flows from, or is a reduction of, the sovereignty of the protected state, suzerainty is conceived as derived from, and a reduction of, the sovereignty of the dominant state.
		Even in feudal times suzerainty might be merely nominal, an instance in point being the suzerainty or over-lordship of the papacy over Naples.
		The convention (by its preamble) granted to the inhabitants complete self-government, " subject to the suzerainty of her Majesty," and this suzerainty was reaffirmed in the articles.

		Because suzerainty treaties have blessings and curses, it is easy to regard the blessing of Abraham as the positive reward for obedience or faithfulness in distinction from the negative sanction of faithlessness or disobedience.
		Because the essence of the Genesis 12 blessing is an inheritance, the patriarchal blessing-testament is superior to the suzerainty treaty as a model for understanding the blessing of Abraham.
		Weinfeld regards the structure of the suzerainty treaty as very similar to the covenant of grant, but states: "Functionally, however, there is a vast difference between these two types of document." This is because the obligation shifts from vassal to suzerain in the covenant of grant (p.

		So it borrowed the inappropriate doctrine of suzerainty from the effete Turkish sultanate and made spurious treaties with Tibet and China in 1890, 1893, 1904, 1906, 1908 (and in 1914 which China refused to ratify).
		The thrust of British foreign policy on Tibet in the late nineteenth century was that China had a weak form of suzerainty over Tibet and that Britain as the sovereign power in India could exercise a certain amount of local predominance there (the justification for the Younghusband invasion of Tibet).
		Suzerainty in international law is an arrangement whereby one state retaining its separate identity is subject to a sort of guardianship by another state: see Oppenheim's International Law 9th ed Vol 1 para 81.

		But, this is not the only kind of covenant in the OT: this suzerainty treaty, which involved a host of stipulations and conditions, needs to be set in the context of the Abrahamic, promissory covenant.
		A major point, and it has to be said often, is that this suzerainty treaty, not to mention the promissory covenant, was a relationship and not a contract or simple compact.
		The theology he infers from the suzerainty treaty derives from his theology not just from the treaty form and its contents.

		The suzerainty of the Capetians was not recognised unless it seemed opportunistic and advantageous to a local lord to do so.
		The main reason for the fall of the Angevin Empire and the takeover by the Capetian kings of many of the principalities was the fact that the Angevins failed to cover the costs that the defence of their possessions demanded.
		Although kings managed to gain sovereignty in addition to their suzerainty over many of the different principalities of France, most regions, duchies and counties maintained their identities; a characteristic that can still be seen nowadays, despite the high political centralisation.

	Dalai Lama's Appeal To UN (1950) \| Friends of Tibet (INDIA)
		Tibet, notwithstanding Anglo-Chinese influence from time to time, maintained its separate existence, in justification of which it may be pointed out that it has been able to keep peace and order within the country and remain at peace with the world.
		It was British persuasion which led Tibet to sign a treaty which superimposed on it the nominal (non-interfering) suzerainty of China and by which China was accorded the right to maintain a mission in Lhasa, though it was strictly forbidden to meddle in the internal affairs of Tibet.
		Apart from that fact, even the nominal suzerainty which Tibet conceded to China is not enforceable because of the non-signature of the treaty of 1914 by the Chinese.

		To Yuan Shih-kai [Yuan Shikai] a memorandum was addressed stating the willingness of the British Government to recognise Chinese suzerainty over Tibet but not to admit the right of China to intervene in the internal administration of the country or to maintain an unlimited number of troops there.
		In the latter, roughly all to the west of the upper waters of the Yangtze [Yangzi], Britain would recognise that Tibet was under Chinese suzerainty but China was to recognise the integrity of Tibet and to abstain from interference in its internal affairs.
		The Tibetans were prepared, reluctantly, to acknowledge Chinese suzerainty in return for a fixed frontier and the precise limitation of the extent of that suzerainty.

	Syria and Israel: Keeping the Peace in Lebanon
		Otherwise Israel would be left to deal with a non-principal, leaving Syria potentially free to pressure Israel through Lebanon and remain immune from the consequences, either by disguising its involvement or relying on Israel to give a higher priority to other equities.
		One approach to minimizing the risk of failure would be to link the security situation in southern Lebanon to the disposition of the Golan Heights and require the active collaboration of Israel's principal nemesis, Syria.
		Were it simply a matter of bloody-minded logic, Israel could probably link its withdrawal from the Golan to peace and quiet in southern Lebanon by insisting that the Syrian army take direct responsibility for securing the Lebanese side of the boundary from acts of anti-Israeli violence.

		This was also a restoration of the suzerainty treaty, and made all five of these books holy.
		The debate over whether the suzerainty treaty of Moses, the Deuteronomy of Josiah, or the Torah of Ezra is the legitimizing document can only be argued in terms of force and effect.
		Since it was the stated intent of the authors to recognize the supremacy of the suzerainty treaty, it would first appear that the suzerainty treaty was the legitimizing document and that the subsequent documents were amendments.

		A "suzerainty treaty" is a treaty of a suzerain, an overlord, made with a client-king.
		In the case of this spiritual suzerainty, this is spiritual and theological but it even has ramifications in watching over and protecting your life in a hostile world.
		This, of course, must be understood in terms of the spirituality and values of the Kingdom of the Overlord and is not to be confused with the anti-Christian prosperity theology that is taking over in many religious quarters today.

		The agreement, it was stated, therefore, put on a formal basis, India's relationship and status with China with reference to Tibet —; a status which was recognised by international law and brought it in conformity with the change that had taken place in Lhasa.
		India's relationship with Tibet had remained fluid for several decades till a conference was held in 1914 at Simla under the presidentship of Sir Henry McMohan at which the well-known "Simla convention" was drafted.
