Where does the word nationwide come from?

"Nationwide" is a compound word formed by combining "nation" and "wide". It emerged in the late 19th century, reflecting a growing sense of national identity and interconnectedness. "Nation" stems from the Latin "natio," meaning "birth" or "race." "Wide" is derived from Old English "wid," meaning "broad" or "extensive." The combination of these two elements creates a descriptive term that emphasizes the vast scope and national reach of something, whether it be a company, organization, or event.
