The act or process of dividing something into ten parts or groups.
From Latin 'decadare' (to divide into tens) + '-tion' (noun suffix indicating action or process). This rare noun describes the action of systematically dividing something into exactly ten portions or sections.
While 'decadation' is seldom used today, the Romans heavily relied on dividing things into tens for military organization and land surveys—understanding this reveals how ancient Rome built such efficient systems across enormous territories.
