What is a "treaty"?
A treaty is a formal, legally binding agreement between two or more parties, typically countries or governments. It is used to regulate relationships and cooperation on various issues, such as trade, defense, or environmental protection. Treaties are negotiated and signed by representatives of the parties involved and often require approval by each party's governing body to become effective. They establish specific terms and conditions that the parties agree to follow and can address a wide range of topics and concerns.
Example

The environmental treaty aimed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and protect biodiversity.
The extradition treaty allowed for the transfer of criminals between the two countries to face justice.
