A state of freedom from war, violence, or disturbance, or a feeling of calm and tranquility in one's mind and surroundings.

Where the word comes from

Peace comes from Old French *pais*, derived from Latin *pax*, meaning "agreement" or "absence of war."

The word entered English after the Norman Conquest in 1066, gradually replacing the Old English *sibb*.
