Etymology
'contemporarily-divided' originates from the combination of 'contemporary' and 'divide', where 'contemporary' means 'belonging to the same time' and 'divide' means 'to separate into parts'.
'Contemporary' evolved from the Latin word 'contemporarius', and 'divide' from the Latin 'dividere'.
Initially, 'contemporary' meant 'of the same time', and 'divide' meant 'to separate'. The combined term 'contemporarily-divided' retains these meanings in a modern context.
