Technically, in the US, it's part of the government because it's laid out that way in the Constitution, both Federal (Article III, Section 1) and State (different articles for different States). It came to be that way because government, being the source of law (the Legislative Branch), developed an interest in law enforcement (the Executive Branch), which in turn required the development of the courts (Judicial Branch) to determine if an actual law had been broken, and if so, which one and to what degree.
