Where this word comes from
From Middle High German burcvriede (“special legal status of a castle shared by several heirs, strictly forbidding violence like feuds etc. within”). Can be analysed synchronously as Burg (“castle, fortification”) + Frieden (“peace”). Revived by national romanticism in the 19th century and applied especially to the suspension of inter-party rivalry in the German Empire during World War I.
