The Crown
Monarch's televised biography
The Crown refers to the institution of monarchy—the sovereign and the system of royal government: lands belonging to The Crown, a minister of The Crown.
In British law, criminal cases are brought by The Crown against defendants.
The Crown is also a Netflix historical drama chronicling the reign of Elizabeth II. (Lowercase, the crown is the top of the head or a dental cap.)
