Actually it comes from the Latin title “Caesar”.

So does “Kaiser”, by the way.

[Rider on the Rain]

You’re absolutely right. But it means emperor. Historically, the Kaiser had more than one kingdom, each ruled by a king.

[Verginius Rufus]

The Russian word for "king" is korol'--from Carolus (as in Charlemagne).

This doesn't violate the Constitution because the person granting the titles is not a foreign ruler. And the title "czar" might be considered a title of ignobility rather than one of nobility.

[Donald Rumsfeld Fan]

The original Czar.

Latin, etc.

I have AGAIN begun watching the HBO DVD Series “Rome” - first and second seasons. Disturbing parallels in the history of both “Republics.”
