Origin:
The term "brigandage" has its roots in the Latin word "brigāns," which referred to roving bandits or mercenaries. The word "brigand" was originally used in the context of military expeditions and raids, but over time it came to be associated with violent robbery and theft.
Brigandage has been a common phenomenon throughout history and has been found in various forms around the world. In the Middle Ages, brigands were particularly active in the countryside and mountains, where they preyed on travelers and villagers. In the 19th and 20th centuries, brigands were often associated with rebellions and uprisings against established governments.
