Etymology
'justly-administered' originates from the combination of 'justly' and 'administered'. 'Justly' comes from the Old French 'juste', meaning 'fair', and 'administered' is derived from the Latin 'administrare', meaning 'to manage'.
'justly-administered' combines the Middle English 'justly' and the Latin-derived 'administered', forming a modern English adjective.
Initially, 'justly' meant 'in a fair manner', and 'administered' meant 'managed'. Together, they evolved to mean 'managed in a fair manner'.
