Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Autonomy, the condition or quality of being self-governing or free from excessive external control, has been a vital concept in theory and research on human growth, development, well-being, and motivation.

Detailed explanation-2: -Autonomy is variously rendered as self-law, self-government, self-rule, or self-determination. The concept first came into prominence in ancient Greece (from the Greek auto-nomos), where it characterized city states that were self governing.

Detailed explanation-3: -In its simplest sense, autonomy is about a person’s ability to act on his or her own values and interests. Taken from ancient Greek, the word means ‘self-legislation’ or ‘self-governance. ‘ Modern political thought and bioethics often stress that individual autonomy should be promoted and respected.

Detailed explanation-4: -Political autonomy exists when a group of persons or a territory are self-governing, thus not under the control of a higher level of government. Complete autonomy consists of an independent state, but there are autonomous regions that have a degree of self-governance greater than the rest of the country.

Detailed explanation-5: -In the context of nation states, self-governance is called national sovereignty which is an important concept in international law. In the context of administrative division, a self-governing territory is called an autonomous region.
