Westminster is a sector in the center of London, left the Cité of Westminster.

“Westminster” is often used like a short cut for the Palais of Westminster, which lodges the Parlement the United Kingdom and also in a similar but opposite manner for the government (rather than the legislature) which has many offices in the surroundings (see Whitehall).

“Westminster” is also used in reference to the Système of Westminster, the democratic system of government such as it evolved/moved in the United Kingdom. This system is used or at the base in other nations, in particular what was the British Empire and nowadays the the Commonwealth.

“Westminster” is also a short cut for the Abbaye of Westminster, the traditional place of crowning and burial for the British monarchs, or the school of Westminster, a public school with a long story.

The Norman French-speaking people who founded Westminster called this place “Ouestmoutier” (or Westmoutier), i.e. the monastery (moutier) of the West.

The title of Duc of Westminster was created in 1874 by the queen Victoria.
