The king can move in any direction, including diagonally, to any adjacent square that is not attacked by an opponent's piece or pawn. - The first king to move must therefore step back from his pawn, leaving him no longer able to protect it (the rules of chess forbid the kings moving within one square of each other).
- make (someone) king. - For history lovers, Richard the Second was dethroned by Bolingbroke, who was kinged Henry The Fourth.
