stateliness

/stˈeɪtlinəs/ noun

The quality or state of being stately

Word Origin State comes from Latin status 'condition, position,' from stare 'to stand.' Stately means 'like a state,' implying dignity and grandeur. Stateliness is that quality of standing firm and impressive. The root *sta- gives us stand, stable, station, and statue (something that stands). So stateliness is literally 'standing-ness.'
