Compulsory land
The country forced the threat of homicidal offenses which cause the public peace is disturbed. The public peace (according to medieval terminology, land peace ) should be disturbed by the fact that the threat shook the consciousness of the population to the extent that they could not live in peace and quiet. A larger group of people was already considered to be the population.
