Vector clocks in a distributed system help track causality and order events by assigning a unique timestamp to each node. This allows nodes to determine the relative ordering of events and understand the causal relationships between them. By comparing vector clocks, nodes can accurately determine the sequence of events across multiple nodes in the system.
