We have a 3 mile limit and a 12 mile limit. What’s the difference between the two?

from wikipedia, there is also a 200 mile limit
The three-mile limit refers to a traditional and now largely obsolete conception of the international law of the seas which defined a country's territorial waters, for the purposes of trade regulation and exclusivity, as extending as far as the reach of cannons fired from land.
