 Law Enforcement in British Colonial Africa (by Mathieu Deflem)
British laws were introduced, but always with certain mutations, largely for economic and political purposes, to form a hybrid of laws, reflected in a mixture of central and native colonial law enforcement units.
Common law may have been applied to the European settlers in the colonies, but as far as the African populations were concerned, British law was mixed with the European construction of customary law, forming an amalgam of entirely divergent legal principles.
As in Nyasaland, the British conquest of the Gold Coast initially relied heavily on a military force for the establishment of the territorial boundaries of British colonial rule.5 In 1845 detachments of the West India Regiment were brought into the territory, and the first official police force was organized in 1865.

Any reference to the Northwest Territories usually brings to mind a picture of a bleak barren country with a midnight sun in summer and northern lights in winter, inhabited by Eskimos and overrun with polar bears, white foxes and Arctic owls.
