Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

The term combines 'national', originating from Latin 'natio' (people, birth) via French, and 'sovereignty', derived from Old French 'souveraineté', ultimately from Late Latin 'superanus' (supreme). Emerged prominently in political philosophy during the Peace of Westphalia (1648) to designate the supreme authority of a state over its own territory and domestic affairs.
