The Geneva Conventions comprise four treaties and three additional protocols that set the standards in international law for humanitarian treatment of the victims of war. The first three were ratified in Geneva, Switzerland in 1864, 1906, and 1929. The singular term Geneva Convention refers to the agreements of 1949, negotiated in the aftermath of World War II, updating the terms of the first three treaties and adding a fourth treaty. The language is extensive, with articles defining the basic rights of those captured during a military conflict, establishing protections for the wounded, and addressing protections for civilians in and around a war zone.

| - The Geneva Conventions are a series of documents on Earth, comprising six treaties and three additional protocols, that establish the standard of international law for the humanitarian treatment of the victims of war. The singular term Geneva Convention denotes the agreements of 1949, negotiated in the aftermath of the Second World War (1939–45), which updated the terms of the first three treaties (1864, 1906, 1929), and added a fourth treaty. The Geneva Convention also defines the rights and protections of non-combatants. The Geneva Conventions were later adopted into interstellar law by the wide galactic community in 2013 with the signing of the Heliopolis Compact and the formation of the Systems Coalition. This followed on from a conference held in Geneva in July 2012 which added the Fifth and Sixth treaties into the conventions, relating to space combat and the treatment of off-world hostiles respectively.
