The action of dissolving or breaking apart; the ending or termination of an assembly, partnership, or official body. Can also refer to moral decay or the process of disintegration.
From Latin 'dissolutio,' from 'dissolvere' (to loosen apart), from 'dis-' (apart) and 'solvere' (to loosen). The word encompasses both physical breaking apart and metaphorical endings of relationships or institutions.
Dissolution is a 'dis-solution' - when there's no longer a solution to keep things together, everything dissolves apart. Like sugar dissolving in water, relationships, governments, or partnerships can dissolve when they can't hold together anymore.
