royal lands
Monarch's estate holdings
Royal lands are territories owned by or reserved for a monarch or crown, as distinct from private estates or public property.
Historically, these lands provided income for the sovereign and were often subject to special legal status—hunting grounds, forests, and estates that commoners couldn't freely use.
The king's deer roamed the royal lands undisturbed.
