extremeness

/ɛkˈstɹimnəs/ noun

The degree or property of being extreme.

Word Origin From Latin 'extremus' meaning 'outermost', from 'exter' (outside). Extremeness is the quality of being extreme — at the outermost limit. The root gives us 'extremity' (the farthest point), 'extremism' (going to extremes), and 'external' (outside). So extremeness is about being at the very edge.
