| − | == Etymology ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | The word "centiare" describes an old metric system unit of area, equal to 1 square meter, used in some countries for measuring small land areas. The Latin word "centum" describes "hundred", and the Greek word "centro" describes "center". The Latin "are" or "area" refers to "level ground" or "open space". Thus, from an etymological perspective, Centiare strives to level the playing field by being an open and free center devoted 100% to commercial, non-profit and personal enterprises.
