Etymology
The word 'bureaucrat' originated in the early 19th century from the French word 'bureaucrate', which in turn came from the French 'bureau' (desk or office) and the Greek suffix '-kratฤs' (ruler). The concept of bureaucracy and bureaucratic officials has been present in various forms of government throughout history, but the modern usage of the term 'bureaucrat' became more prominent during the industrial revolution and the growth of government administrative systems.
