Overview

A union united under treaty with individual independent sovereign member States, with equal voting rights creating this Inter-Governmental Organization (IGO) possessing inherent governmental authority in its own right, exercising its official status in diplomatic relations. This Inter-Governmental Organization (IGO), serves as the supporting infrastructure, vehicle for fully exercising sovereignty, and most traditional forum for diplomatic relations, for the full spectrum of all types of States. Member States of GADRHO in addition to territorial countries, are also diverse sovereign historical institutions, indigenous nations, and their inter-governmental alliances, including those which no longer own nor govern their former territories. Additionally, it advocates for Stateless People's such as the Roma. In this way, GADRHO finally gives a voice to all the Peoples of the Nations, and their history, heritage, culture and traditions, representing all the institutions of humanity, for effective participation in world affairs as essential members of the true international community of Nation States. International law recognizes the existence of “non-territorial” (international) States, which can exercise diplomatic status without having any territory (1961 Diplomatic Relations, Articles 1(i), 23.1, 30.1). This rare type of “State” is called a “subject of international law”, because its sovereignty is established by effect of law, not by holding territory (1969 Law of Treaties, Article 3). By the “sovereign equality of States” (1970 Cooperation of States, 6th Principle), “All States”, thus including non-territorial, “are… equal members of the international community” (1974 Economic Rights of States, Article 10). International law recognizes the “status of diplomatic agents” from all forms of nation states “since ancient times”, including historical sovereign entities of “differing constitutional and social systems”(Convention on Diplomatic Relation)
