Etymology
'strategically-placed' originates from the combination of 'strategically,' derived from the Greek word 'strategos,' meaning 'general,' and 'placed,' from the Old English 'plæcian,' meaning 'to put or set.'
'strategically' evolved from the Greek 'strategos' through Latin 'strategia' and Old French 'strategique,' while 'placed' evolved from Old English 'plæcian.'
Initially, 'strategically' meant 'pertaining to a general or military strategy,' but over time it evolved to mean 'carefully planned or designed.'
