Word origin

The term 'prepper' is derived from the word 'prepare,' which emphasizes the act of getting ready for unforeseen events. Emerging prominently in the late 20th century, the prepper movement gained momentum during periods of economic uncertainty and global conflicts. The concept was influenced by earlier survivalist movements and has roots in the fear of nuclear war during the Cold War. Over time, preppers have adapted their strategies to address a variety of potential disasters, ranging from natural calamities to social upheavals. Today, the prepper community utilizes social media to share information, tools, and techniques, further popularizing the idea of self-reliance in an unpredictable world.
