Introduction

Diplomacy was known as practices and institutions by which nations conduct their relations with one another. Originally, the term diplomatics referred to the care and evaluation of official papers or archives, many of which were treaties. In the 18th century diplomatic documents increasingly meant those pertaining to international relations, and the term diplomatic corps was used to signify the body of ambassadors, envoys, and officials attached to foreign missions. In 1796 the British philosopher Edmund Burke castigated the French for their double diplomacy during the Napoleonic Wars; since then the term diplomacy has been associated with international politics and foreign policy. On the other hand, International Relations is the study and practice of political relationships among the worlds nations, especially their governments. International relations may also refer to the interactions between nongovernmental groups, such as multinational corporations (companies that operate in more than one country) or international organizations such as the Red Cross or the United Nations (UN). International relations is a broad and complex topic both for countries engaged in relationships with other nations, and for observers trying to understand those interactions. These relationships are influenced by many variables. They are shaped by the primary participants in international relations, including national leaders, other politicians, and nongovernment participants, such as private citizens, corporations, and nongovernmental organizations. They are also affected by domestic political events and nonpolitical influences, including economics, geography, and culture. Despite all of these other influences, the primary focus of international relations is on the interactions between nations.

For example, according to the traditions of the interstate system, one nation should not infringe upon another nations rightful territory or interfere in another nations internal affairs.
