"Imperious" comes from "imperial," which means "of an empire." (An "empire," in turn, is a political structure in which a single ruler controls not only his or her own state but many other territories as well. Examples are the Roman Empire and British empire.)

The root word of Imperialism is 'imper'. This is derived from the Latin word 'imperare', which means to rule, command, or govern.
