'assertively-assembled' combines the adverb 'assertively' with the past participle 'assembled', forming a modern English adjective.
Initially, 'assertive' meant 'to affirm', and 'assemble' meant 'to bring together'. Over time, 'assertively-assembled' evolved to mean 'confidently and forcefully put together'.
