The act of coming together or recovering strength, especially when motivating others to support a common cause or to recover from a setback.
From French 'rallier' (to reunite), derived from 'ral-' (assembly) and 'lier' (to bind); originally referred to soldiers regrouping after being scattered in battle.
The word 'rallying' has military roots in regrouping scattered troops, but evolved beautifully to describe hope and unity—from 'rallying cry' to 'rallying around a cause,' it now captures the power of collective human motivation.
