Although ADIZ should not be confused for FIR region, in practice ADIZ is roughly (but not always) an extension & ENFORCEMENT of the country FIR region, of which the FIR region itself typically already doesn't match the country land / sea border. To made things more confusing, if you check any FIR chart it's 3 dimensional in context with horizontal space are further subdivided into vertical space that may be managed by different country authority for each of those vertical volume.So the Air Identification Defence Zone or somewhat are the leghtened hand of above teritotial air soverignty ?
And the more strong Air Force of the Nation the more wide its Air Space Teritory(sovereignty) ?
Because there is no set of codified International Law whatsoever pertinent to airspace territory, it is more of a subject of geopolitic than international law. However, in practice there are few legal principles & consensus that are in use that generally speaking limit the vertical sovereignty of any nation to the Karman line, but then again the Karman line context is vertical and NOT horizontal
