Sovereignty

Sovereignty is understood in jurisprudence as the full right and power of a governing body to govern itself without any interference from outside sources or bodies. In political theory, sovereignty is a substantive term designating supreme authority over some polity. It is a basic principle underlying the dominant Westphalian model of state foundation.

Derived from Latin through French souveraineté, its attainment and retention, in both Chinese and Western culture, has traditionally been associated with certain moral imperatives upon any claimant.

Different approaches

The concept of sovereignty has been discussed throughout history, from the time before recorded history through to the present day.

Sovereign (video game)

Sovereign was a Massively multiplayer online real-time strategy (MMORTS) game developed by Sony Online Entertainment and cancelled in 2003.

Sovereign would have given each player a home world, to which their forces would retreat when the players signed off. Thus, the developers hoped to prevent players from losing their hard-won resources and valuable units when they signed off. The actual battles would be fought on different planets, each one holding from 15 to 500 players, depending on the size of the planet. A system of specialization would affect how well players did in battle, as well as how effective players were in trading and diplomacy. The game ultimately never made it out of the early development stages and was cancelled in 2003.
