Koalitionär

German Etymology de :bor fr:coalitionnaire<ety:af<coalition><-aire>> Seemingly borrowed from de fr coalitionnaire, which appears to have been coined in the 18th century but has remained rare in French.

In German, it is first unambiguously attested in 1894, and entered wider usage in political commentating in the second half of the 20th century. de Koalition<t:coalition> -är<t:-ary>.
