'democracy' -- from δημοκρᾰτῐ́ᾱ (dēmokrătĭ́ā) = "division for dominion" = "divide & rule"
i.e. δημο- (dēmo-) + -κρατία (-kratía)
from
*déh₂mos (“part, division”),
from *deh₂-(“to divide, share”) + *-mos (result noun). Thus, deh₂+-mos= 'division'
and
κρατία (-kratía) ("domination by"; "dominating system" = "system of/for dominion"
from: *kret-os = *kret-("move quickly, to rattle, shake", "to swell, to be strong") +-os (result noun)
to: κρᾰ́τος (krắtos, “dominion, power”) + -ῐ́ᾱ (result noun).
Liberals divide the nations with confusion and name calling so we fight each other but not them.
