As a Nebraskan, I can tell you that the Admirals play a very important role in our state. It is well known that whaling is illegal in the state of Nebraska, and it the responsibility of the appointed Admirals to lead the Great Navy of the State of Nebraska in its efforts to stop illegal whaling in our waters.

@annasolovyeva1013
@annasolovyeva1013 Год назад
@@keithharper32 nah. Medieval title Voivode (existing in all slavic countries) translates into modern glavnokomanduyushchiy or voenachalnik - or, in English, commander in chief. It's the historical position (not title/rank) for the commander of the army. It's literally voi + vode = warrior leader. Warlord. In our medieval past, voivodes could be elected (for a city's army) or when several armies united they chose the most respected leader. Strategos is the equal title from classic greek history. We generally have a lot of posh synonyms to "army commander" that mean nothing particular but that and sound great. They come from court poetry mainly, because there you have to worship 10 generals in a row and not repeat yourself. Most of them may be used as titles, but don't necessarily have to, so we can write most of them about IDK, Napoleon. The monarch with the title is just using some title he got from what we'd call today a military dictatorship (Serbian Voivodstvo/warlordship) showing off the fact he has an army. I'd say he's *clanging his weapons*.
@whyareyoureadingmynickname8158
@@keithharper32 Best translation of Prince to Serbian would be "Knez" as it was the lowest high ranking title in Serbia.

By using that title, Franz Joseph basically called himself commander of all Serbs.

Gotta comment on the fancy full title of Brazilian Emperors: “By the Grace of God and Unanimous Acclamation of the Peoples, Constitutional Emperor and Perpetual Defender of Brazil.” And the second in line for the throne had the special title “Prince of Grão-Pará”, similar to the “Prince of Wales” title in Britain. Grão-Pará in this case refers to the largest Brazilian province at the time that contained most of the Amazon territory and was administrated separately from the rest of Brazil in colonial times, so having an important member of the imperial family have this title was a way of promoting integration.

There was Östmark (Eastern March), the duchy, which had been around since the Middle Ages. Then there was Österreich (Eastern Realm), the empire, which was amalgamated from all of the Habsburgs’ eastern holdings after the abolition of the HRE so that they could still have something to be emperors of.

A thing to note about 2:34 and the "subjugation of all mountains": the Sumerian word "kar" meant both "mountain" and "enemy land", in the context that the Sumerians lived in the flatlands of the Euphrates while hostile tribes (think for example of the Gutians who toppled the Akkadian empire) lived in the Zagros mountains. In that sense Ashurnasipal's title likely refers to his subjugation of enemy tribes/kingdoms. Also, at 3:04 the word "xshayathiya" means simply "king", for example "xshayathiya vazraka" means "great king". It's the title "xshayathiya xshayathiyanam" that translates to "king of kings".

Gov. in charge, he formed the proud Nebraska Navy and made his buddies the Admirals. It’s still around today and Admirals are usually notable Nebraskans but not always. Former Admirals include: Johnny Carson, Dr. J, Douglas MacArthur, Martin Luther King III, Bill Murray, and Arnold Palmer

It was honestly hilarious and kinda bs since, when we have parliamentary meetings in VCs, we're required to read out the full name and titles of which ever royal family member is present to represent the crown.

I've been reading plenty about Ukrainian history (including the Cossack letter) over the last few months, and I'll tell you this: the length of the titles are quite memorable! The legendary correspondence between Sultan Mehmed IV and the Zaporizhzhian Host was, on both ends, full of rather long titles! According to one version, Mehmed's letter to the Cossacks read as follows (the titles are in italics): "I, _the_ _Sultan,_ _son_ _of_ _Mohamed,_ _brother_ _of_ _the_ _Sun_ _and_ _Moon,_ _grandson_ _and_ _vicegerent_ _of_ _God,_ _sovereign_ _of_ _all_ _kingdoms:_ _of_ _Macedonia,_ _Babylonia,_ _and_ _Jerusalem,_ _of_ _Upper_ _and_ _Lower_ _Egypt:_ _king_ _of_ _kings,_ _ruler_ _of_ _all_ _that_ _exists;_ _extraordinary,_ _invincible_ _knight;_ _constant_ _guardian_ _of_ _the_ _grave_ _of_ _Jesus_ _Christ;_ _trustee_ _of_ _God_ _himself;_ _hope_ _and_ _comfort_ _of_ _Moslems,_ _confusion_ _and_ _great_ _protector_ _of_ _Christians,_ command you, the Zaporozhian Cossacks, to surrender to me voluntarily and without any kind of resistance, and don't permit yourselves to trouble me with your attacks!" This selection of titles is incredibly grandiose in several ways! For one thing, the titles used by the Turkish sultan is actually far longer than the actual substance of the letter itself! For another thing, three of Mehmed's titles included "sovereign of all kingdoms", "king of kings", and "ruler of all that exists", thereby claiming sovereignty over the entire universe! He also claimed a divine mandate in his self-proclamation as "grandson and vicegerent of God" and "trustee of God himself". Of course, as you mentioned in the original comment, the Zaporizhian Cossacks responded to this by bestowing even more titles on the would-be invader... and they are about as complimentary as a certain other reply that was given to the crew of the _Moskva_ in modern times! "You Turkish Satan", "grandson of the Evil Serpent himself, and buffoon of all the world and the netherworld", and "nasty glob of spit" are some of the nicer ones. Thanks for reminding us of those titles! Just as it was with the buffoon of the 17th century, so shall it be with the buffoon of this century. Слава Україні!

3:19 In the Hebrew bible, God is nicknamed "kings of kings king" - it is possible it was to distinguish god from "the king of kings".

3:14 I think this is just a case of not being outdone, so some "king" titles are swapped to "king of kings". There are also several use of "The king of king-of-kings".

5:54 Not so uncommon, even nowadays. Every Dutch law and royal decree starts with: ¨"We, ...., by the Grace of God, King/Queen of the Netherlands, Prince/Princess of Orange-Nassau, etc., etc., etc.""

Should have gotten someone to read along Dan all of Franz Jozeph's titles in Hungarian, at the same time. It would sound horrendous, and I'd love every second of it.

Romania's Cauzescu (spelling!), is a modern example worth note. The, Tonava of Thoughts? River Donau, or Danube, or Don, I think. We have a strange habit of renaming stuff... Though, Don of Thoughts sound appropriately mafiatic. (Oh, that's Russian river, not Danube. Appropriate...) I do wonder, what were the less pompous, or just, minor titles of actual rulers. Like, "friend of dogs", because, someone bestowed it 400 years ago.
