To separate by force. To tear apart. ''During the course of human history entire nations have been dirempted by the horror of war.''

I see the definition. I read the example. I can't help but feel this should be an adjective. Unkempt. Dirempt. At least it's obsolete, so I probably won't come across it too often.
