Etymology
'coalition' originates from the Latin word 'coalitio,' where 'co-' meant 'together' and 'alere' meant 'to nourish.'
'coalitio' transformed into the French word 'coalition,' and eventually became the modern English word 'coalition' through Middle English.
Initially, it meant 'a growing together,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'an alliance for combined action.'
