'anarchial' originates from 'anarchy', which comes from Greek, specifically the word 'anarkhia', where 'an-' meant 'without' and 'arkhos' meant 'ruler'.

'anarkhia' transformed into the Medieval Latin 'anarchia', then into the English 'anarchy', and the adjective form 'anarchial' was derived from this root.

Initially, it meant 'without a ruler or government', but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'lacking order or control'.
