Law External claims do not replace internal law.

Explanation Law governing laxyuup and resources arises from ayaawx. Assertions made outside the legal order do not displace internal authority. Recognition from elsewhere does not create or erase lawful responsibility.

Standard Internal law remains primary in matters of land, resources, and stewardship. External claims must respect existing law and relationship. No outside framework overrides ayaawx without consent.

Effect Internal law retains continuity and legitimacy. External pressure cannot substitute for lawful authority. Law endures through adherence to its own source.
