Peace
Calm between nations
Peace is the absence of war or conflict—a state of calm where hostilities have ceased.
Nations sign peace treaties; people live in peace with their neighbors.
The word extends to inner tranquility: peace of mind, at peace with yourself.
To make peace is to reconcile after conflict.
Rest in peace wishes the dead eternal calm.
To hold your peace is to remain silent, especially when you might object.
