EN: supreme power; sovereignty
This is the "unlimited power" meme, but for real. It's the kind of power a mother has when she gives you "the look" and you instantly know you messed up. In politics, it's sovereignty—the nation's right to govern itself without anyone else butting in. It's the ultimate "ako ang masusunod dito" (I'm in charge here) statement.
From `kataas-taasan` (highest) and `kapangyarihan` (power).
ROOT MEANING: high; tall
Used in discussions of politics, theology, or any form of ultimate authority.
