Explanation and Etymology - (政権) seiken

政権 (せいけん) is a Japanese word that can be translated as "government" or "political power." The word is composed of two kanjis: 政, which means "politics" or "government", and 権, which means "power" or "law". The etymology of the word dates back to the Meiji period (1868-1912), when Japan underwent great political and social reform. During this period, the country adopted a centralized government system with the emperor as a symbolic figure and the prime minister as the effective leader of the government. The word 政権 was created to describe this new system of government and the political power it represented. Since then, the word 政権 has been used to refer to the general government, as well as changes in political power, such as elections and leadership changes. The word is often used in news and political discussions in Japan.
