DMZ

an area that is now peaceful but could become the sight of violence (from Demilitarized zone, the term form the area where a war was fought, used since the end of the Korean war. violence is often legally prohibited by an agreement in such frontiers or boundaries to promote peace and reduce the chance that the war could restart)
