Home›Landmark Cases›Country or JurisdictionBrowse ByCountry or JurisdictionThis dimension groups landmark cases by the country or jurisdiction whose courts decided them. Wikipedia notes that "leading case" is commonly used in the United Kingdom and other Commonwealth jurisdictions instead of "landmark case", as used in the United States, showing how the very terminology differs by jurisdiction. Browsing this way collects every landmark case from the same country or jurisdiction.Country or JurisdictionSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)Country or JurisdictionFilter Results21 entriesAdmission YearAll1707 (2)Area (sq km)All2586.4 (1)36,197 (1)41,865 (1)51,179.92 (1)80,231 (1)100,472 (1)132,932 (1)242,500 (1)357,022 (1)377,975 (1)580,367 (1)632,702.3 (1)947,303 (1)1,141,748 (1)1,220,813 (1)3,287,263 (1)7,688,287 (1)8,510,346 (1)9,866,632 (1)9,984,670 (1)17,075,400 (1)Independence or Founding YearAll1776 (1)1801 (1)1810 (1)1821 (1)1822 (1)1839 (1)1867 (1)1901 (1)1910 (1)1945 (1)1947 (1)1961 (1)1963 (1)1991 (1)PopulationAll693,916 (1)5,044,197 (1)5,439,842 (1)18,130,208 (1)23,299,132 (1)27,801,023 (1)41,417,056 (1)51,106,229 (1)52,695,952 (1)54,200,000 (1)56,490,048 (1)63,419,000 (1)67,462,121 (1)69,081,996 (1)69,414,000 (1)83,497,147 (1)122,587,000 (1)142,557,000 (1)213,421,037 (1)340,587,000 (1)1,210,854,977 (1)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 21AustraliaCountry or Jurisdiction3 entriesBrazilCountry or Jurisdiction1 entryCanadaCountry or Jurisdiction3 entriesColombiaCountry or Jurisdiction1 entryCosta RicaCountry or Jurisdiction2 entriesEnglandCountry or Jurisdiction1 entryFranceCountry or Jurisdiction2 entriesGermanyCountry or Jurisdiction4 entriesIndiaCountry or Jurisdiction8 entriesJapanCountry or Jurisdiction2 entriesKenyaCountry or Jurisdiction1 entryLuxembourgCountry or Jurisdiction2 entriesNetherlandsCountry or Jurisdiction3 entriesRussiaCountry or Jurisdiction1 entryScotlandCountry or Jurisdiction1 entrySouth AfricaCountry or Jurisdiction3 entriesSouth KoreaCountry or Jurisdiction1 entryTaiwanCountry or Jurisdiction1 entryTanzaniaCountry or Jurisdiction1 entryUnited KingdomCountry or Jurisdiction8 entriesUnited StatesCountry or Jurisdiction30 entriesSourcesR v Oakes (Wikipedia)tier 2WikipediaContains: R v Oakes, Category placement - in-categoryView the SourceCommonwealth v Tasmania (Wikipedia)tier 2WikipediaContains: Commonwealth v Tasmania, Category placement - in-categoryView the SourceSouth China Sea Arbitration (Wikipedia)tier 2WikipediaContains: South China Sea Arbitration (Philippines v.
