The Hague Conventions were international treaties negotiated at the First and Second Peace Conferences at The Hague, Netherlands in 1899 and 1907, respectively, and were, along with the Geneva Conventions, among the first formal statements of the laws of war and war crimes in the nascent body of secular international law. A third conference was planned for 1914 (later rescheduled for 1915), but was never realized due to the start of World War I. The International Union of the Hague Peace Conferences, as the German international lawyer and neo-Kantian pacifist Walther Schücking called the assemblies, was the first step toward a world federation, and the predecessor to the League of Nations.
