The Explicarium |
Explicarium, noun. Spurious lists of invented or obscure words drafted to apparently make some fabulous, fabricated tale more palatable. |
What we would think of an in “international” agreement upon the rules of conduct in warfare, standardizing procedures of victory, surrender, the treatment of the loser and of neutrals; a reratification of a much older document known as the Usages of War, a set of dogma governing behaviour to foes, prisoners, noncombatants, and the wounded and infirm during war. Though it was primarily drawn up in reference to land warfare, naval officers will also cite it, though they have their own accord—the Articles of Conduct; however, this is not as comprehensive in its statutes.
