International law is different from national law because international law is not enforced. All it is is a system of treaties and conventions that prevent other countries from doing things that are wrong. For instance, if you make a treaty with Britain to not force the US to join back with them, they can't "legally" do that. If they do, we can tell the countries around them to not do anything with them, and then they will suffer the consequences. This is different from national law because you get a punishment for violations of any law that your nation provides. You cannot make international laws without treaties and conventions because there is no superior court to deal with them, except the International Court of Justice. The international court of justice is where representatives get together to decide if a country has violated its treaties or other internationally-agreed conventions.
Under the doctrine of incorporation, a rule of international law becomes part of national law without the need for express adoption by the local courts or legislature. As a result the domestic courts have to apply a certain rule of international law as long as they there is no explicit contradicting piece of law or judgement. Differently from the latter theory, the transformation doctrine stipulates that rules of international law do not became part of national law until they have been expressly adopted by the state. To become binding on domestic authorities, the international law must transformed into national law through the various mechanisms for the national implementation of international rules freely decided upon by each sovereign State.

States generally adhere to international law because of a shared belief in its legitimacy and the benefits of a rules-based international system. Compliance can also be driven by reputational concerns, the desire to maintain good relations with other states, and the potential consequences of non-compliance such as economic sanctions or loss of credibility on the global stage. Additionally, structures like international organizations or treaties can provide mechanisms for monitoring and enforcing compliance.
