Besides the States named, a permanent
neutrality has been secured to the Ionian Islands
according to the treaties of London, 1863–64;
and also to the Samoan Islands, in virtue
of the agreement between England, Germany,
and the United States of North America,
whereby, amongst other things, it was settled
that in case of any difference of opinion arising,
an appeal should be made to arbitration; and
that a supreme tribunal should be created with
a supreme judge, whom the King of Sweden
and Norway has been empowered to name.

One general advantage which neutralization
affords is the simplification with respect to
foreign policy thereby obtained.

The attitude of a neutralized State can be
reckoned on beforehand by all parties.

In proportion to its military importance and
position, a neutral country constitutes in many
ways a security to all the powers.

It is in close connection with neutralization
that in these days an ever-growing need is
becoming apparent to localize wars as much
as possible; that is, to confine them to those
who begin them.
