Fiats

Italian compact cars

Fiats is the plural of fiat, an authoritative decree or order issued without consultation: The committee ruled by fiats rather than consensus.

A fiat often carries the sense of arbitrary or unilateral power—something imposed rather than negotiated.

In economics, fiat money (like dollars or euros) has value by government declaration rather than backing by gold or other commodities.
