can you give a definition for de jure?
Which law applies?
Notwithstanding that I don't think we can repurpose roles for this, as
already mentioned, I think you need to look at actual examples rather
talk in the abstract.
To take Western Sahara as an example,
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_status_of_Western_Sahara#United_Nations
etc. describes the international political situation. What would you
say was the "de jure" border there and on what basis? According to
MINURSO https://peacekeeping.un.org/en/mission/minurso they are
"preparing for a choice", rather than directly trying to establish an
independent Western Sahara.
Maybe part of the "de jure" list could come from those places in
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Nations_list_of_Non-Self-Governing_Territories#Current_entries
(but excluding those for which there is no other claimant) would help?
That names "Western Sahara", although it doesn't define its borders here.
Best Regards,
Andy
