Etymology
The term 'utopia' was first coined by Sir Thomas More in 1516 in his book of the same name. It is derived from Greek words meaning 'not' and 'place', indicating an imaginary or idealized place. Since then, the concept of utopia has been explored by many writers, philosophers, and thinkers, each offering their own vision of a perfect society.
