Existing conditions - Existing conditions

Japanese: 既成条件 - きせいじょうけん
Existing conditions - Existing conditions

...Conditions relate to future facts. Past facts (for example, "If an earthquake had occurred in India yesterday") are objectively given facts even if the parties do not know them, so they are called pre-existing conditions rather than original conditions. Conditions relate to facts whose occurrence is uncertain.

*Some of the terminology explanations that refer to "pre-existing conditions" are listed below.
