monopoly on violence

The exclusive ability of a sovereign nation to control violence in order to enforce the law and maintain security. Ironically, a government does this by wielding the most force to back up its words.

The police kicked down the crack house door and served a search warrant after detaining the residents at gunpoint.
"That is what essentially sets a nation-state apart, which is the monopoly on violence." - President Obama
Soldiers are authorized to kill during war. Normally this is the highly illegal act of murder.

monopoly

A game that makes children believe in a world of fantasy where battleships, thimbles, and hats are sentient and can own property. On the plus side, it raises the children to be investors and big-buisness types, which may not be on the plus side according to your views.

Monopoly made the child grow up to be a CEO who also thought he was a car.
