Etymology
'administrationist' originates from 'administration,' which comes from Latin, specifically the word 'administratio,' where 'ad-' meant 'to' and 'ministrare' meant 'to serve.'
'administratio' transformed into the Old French word 'administracion,' and eventually became the modern English word 'administration' through Middle English.
Initially, it meant 'management of public affairs,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'supporter of administration.'
