Origin:
The Latin word "abdicāre" combines the prefix "ab-" (away from, off) with the verb "dicāre" (to proclaim, declare, dedicate). It originally meant "to renounce a claim or declaration," and later came to refer specifically to the voluntary relinquishment of power.
The concept of abdication has been present in many cultures and throughout history. Notable examples include:
