Origin:
The term "patrician" originated in ancient Rome, where it referred to the elite aristocratic class. This class held exclusive political, economic, and social privileges, including the exclusive right to hold certain offices and serve in the Senate.
Patricians were often wealthy landowners and were typically descended from the earliest settlers of Rome. They were considered the founders and protectors of the Roman state and enjoyed a privileged status above other social classes, such as the plebeians (commoners).
Over time, the term "patrician" has come to be used more broadly to refer to any member of a high-ranking or elite class, regardless of their specific social or political role. It can also be used figuratively to describe a person who has achieved distinction or status in their field.
