- Snippet from Wikipedia: De facto
De facto (, day FAK-toh, dee -, də -; Latin: [deː ˈfaktoː] ; lit. 'from fact') describes practices that exist in reality, regardless of whether they are officially recognized by laws or other formal norms. It is commonly used to refer to what happens in practice, in contrast with de jure ('from law'). This distinction is highly significant in fields like law and governance.
The term de facto is used to describe concepts that have, or could have, both a declared official form as well as an unofficial functioning form. For example, a de facto government holds power without legal recognition, while a de jure government may have formal legal authority but lack any real power.
