Answer 2

Sir Robert Peel established the Metropolitan Police Force for London based at Scotland Yard in 1829. His 1,000 constables were nicknamed 'Bobbies' or 'Peelers' (both terms are still used today). Although unpopular at first, they proved very successful in cutting crime in London, and by 1857, all cities in the UK had formed their own police forces. Peel is known as the father of modern policing.

The first police force in the modern sense was created by the government of King Louis XIV in 1667 to police the city of Paris. King Louis's royal edict created the office of lieutenant general of police, who was to be the head of the new Paris police force, and defined the task of the police as "ensuring the peace and quiet of the public and of private individuals, purging the city of what may cause disturbances, procuring abundance, and having each and everyone live according to their station and their duties".
