Etymology

**démocrate** (noun) – Derived in French from **démocratie** (the concept of rule by the people). The term ultimately comes from the Greek *demokratía* “rule of the people”, composed of *démos* “the people” + *krátēs* “power” or “rule”. It entered French in the 19th century, borrowing the Latin‑based *democratia* or *democrata* and adding the suffix *‑te* to denote a person who practices or supports this system.
