520 _a"The King's Peace" refers to the principle of maintaining law and order under the British monarchy, particularly during the era of the British Empire. It signified the Crown's authority to ensure public security and resolve disputes within its territories. The concept extended globally, encompassing the colonial administration's enforcement of laws and governance. However, it also reflected imperial control, often prioritizing British interests over local autonomy or traditions in the colonies. https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/09646639231202613
