independent country and which have a population, a common language, and a
defined and distinct territory.
A state is an organized political community living under a single system of
government.
A community of people occupying a definite portion of territory FREE of
external control with an organized government to which a great body of
inhabitants obeys.
Comprised of an executive, bureaucracy, courts, and other institutions.
“A good citizen makes
a good state”
-Aristotle
Four Elements of States
1. Population
The State is a human institution. Hence population is its first and foremost
element.
No state can be imagined without the people, as there must be some rules
and others to be ruled.
State is a community of persons. It is a human political institution. Without a
population, there can be no State. The population can be more or less but it has
to be there.

yPeople cannot constitute a state unless they inhabit a definite territory.
The territory is its “material basis”
The territory of the state comprises:
Land, mountains, rivers, and lakes within its frontiers,
Territorial water, extending six miles into the sea from the coast
Air, space, lying above its territory.
Any interference with the rights of one state by others may
lead to wars.
This is the rationale of the idea contained in the concept of
Respect for Territorial Integrity and Sovereignty.
Art.1 Sec. 1 1987 Constitution
NATIONAL TERRITORY
The national territory comprises the Philippines archipelago,
with all the islands and waters embraced therein, and all
other territories over sovereignty or jurisdiction, consisting
of its terrestrial, fluvial, and aerial domains, including its
territorial sea, the seabed, the subsoil, the insular shelves
and other submarine areas. The waters around, between
and connecting the island of the archipelago, regardless of
their breath and dimensions form part of the internal waters
of the Philippines.
The Archipelagic Principle of
Territoriality
An Archipelago is defined as a sea or part of a sea
studded with islands, often synonymous with island
groups, or as a large group of islands in an extensive
body of water, such as sea.( Deleon, 1997)
In various conferences of the United Nations on the Law of the Sea, the
Philippines, and other archipelago states proposed that an archipelago composed
of groups of islands forming a state is a single unit, with the islands and the
waters within the baselines being internal waters
Internal Waters are the waters Around, Between, and connecting the islands of
the archipelago, regardless of their breath and dimension.
Other Territories over the Philippines has
Sovereignty or Jurisdiction
Any territory that presently, belongs, or might in the future belong to the
Philippines through any of the accepted international modes of acquiring
territory.
TERRITORIAL SEA – The belt of the sea located between the coastal state on the
hand and high seas on the other extending up to 12 nautical miles from the law
watermark.
EXCLUSIVE ECONOMIC ZONE – the body of water extending up to 200 nautical
miles, within which the state may have sovereign rights to explore, exploit,
conserve and manage the natural resources.
The state in the EEZ exercises jurisdiction with
regard to:
The establishment and use of the artificial islands, installations, and structures;
Marine scientific research;
The protection and preservation of the marine environment
3. Government
A community of persons does not form a state unless it is
organized by an established government.
Constituent functions - are those which constitute the
very bonds of society and are compulsory in nature.
Ministrant - functions are those that are undertaken only
by way of advancing the general interests of society and
are merely optional
4. Sovereignty
This is the power of the state to command and enforce obedience of its will from
people.
It means power over people of an area unrestrained by laws originating outside
the area or independence completely devoid of direct external control.
kinds of sovereignty
A. Internal sovereignty
Refers to the power of the state to control within its territory.
B. External sovereignty
Is the power of the state to direct its relations with other states.
The state is not subject to the control of dictation, or the government of any
power.
