First use	ANT-001-I (S853): go {pa-ra-de-su}, la-ra-de ki lo-ne-pa — "Because of imperialism, deviant power moved home." (Arendt, Origins of Totalitarianism)

Composition

pa (place/territory) + ra (power/force) + de (deviation/harm) + su (structure/organization). Head-final: su (structure) is head; pa-ra-de (territorial-deviant-power) specifies the character of the structure — a structure of deviant power organized over foreign territory.

Definition

pa (territory/place) + ra (power/force) + de (deviation/harm) + su (structure/organization) = territorial-deviant-power-structure = imperialism. The organized structure of power applied to foreign territories through deviation from legitimate governance — the domination of distant populations by force. Right-branching: pa + [ra-de-su] = territorial + [deviant-power-structure] = territorial tyranny applied to colonial contexts. Arendt: European imperialism was the historical precursor to totalitarianism; the methods of colonial domination (race ideology, administrative murder, bureaucratic terror) were reimported into Europe. At the CLQ limit (4 roots): no juncture required as the right-branching parse is unambiguous.
