Etymology
'complexly-governed' originates from the combination of 'complexly,' derived from 'complex,' and 'governed,' from the Old French 'governer,' meaning 'to rule or control.'
'Complexly' evolved from 'complex,' which comes from the Latin 'complexus,' meaning 'embraced, surrounded.' 'Governed' comes from the Old French 'governer,' which transformed into the modern English 'govern.'
Initially, 'governed' meant 'to rule or control,' and 'complexly' meant 'in a complex manner.' Together, they describe a system that is ruled in a complicated way.
