Answer Details
When a state is subject to no other authority, it is said to be sovereign. Sovereignty means that a state has the power to govern itself without interference from external sources. It is the highest authority within its own territory and has the ability to make decisions and enforce laws without being overruled by any other outside force. Essentially, a sovereign state has complete control over its own affairs and is not subordinate to any other power or authority.
