International law, politics and security

Open questions on public international law, legal theory, US government and foreign policy, and security studies — jurisdiction, sovereignty, recognition of States, the sources of international law, the UN Charter, and the theories and doctrines that shaped American policy through the Cold War and after. Much of the deck is straight recall of named cases, treaties, doctrines and events; a number of cards are anchored to a specific historical moment (the Cold War, the 1991 Gulf War, the Clinton and George W. Bush administrations, the 2008 financial crisis) and are worded as history, not as current affairs.

Este mazo se modificó al incorporarlo: Every MMLU question is a multiple-choice item: four options and a letter for an answer. Memoquiz resolved the letter, wrote the correct option out in full on the back and threw the other three away — a card answering “B” would teach nothing. Questions that do not stand up without their options were dropped: anything pointing at material the card does not carry (a figure, a table, a passage, a chapter, a scenario), anything naming the answer grid itself (“which of the following”, “which one of these”, bare “Which is…”), every comparative superlative (“best”, “most likely”, “least appropriate”), negative questions, questions whose answer is a number, a calculation, a true/false or a rank, and wording time-stamped relative to the moment of reading (“currently”, “as of 2020”, “in the last two decades”). Questions anchored to a dated historical event or a named administration were kept on purpose: they read as history and do not go stale. Whole subjects were left out for the same reason — calculation subjects, multi-paragraph case studies, dated world statistics, virology and the US general-trivia subject, which carries factual errors and extraction damage. What survived the filters was then read one question at a time, and what read badly was named and removed in the connector source. Retained questions are reproduced word for word; only mechanical repairs are applied — whitespace normalised, raw ligatures decomposed, flattened chemical formulas and units given their subscripts back (H2O → H₂O, kg/m2 → kg/m²), the trailing full stop of answers removed so punctuation does not change from card to card, and a capital restored on answers the source left in lower case. No word is rewritten. This deck was then read a second time against its own cards: every question carrying a factual error, every answer that only held inside the chapter the question came from, every answer left as a bare multiple-choice fragment and every question whose wording came through the source damaged was removed outright. Nothing was rewritten to save a card — we cannot correct the source without being able to prove the correction.
