Answer 2

Pre-commie days a russian ruler was called a CZAR. Pretty much the same thing as a monarch or king. Spacebo!

Answer 3

the russian ruler was formerly called a tsar before the russian revolution

Answer 4

The Crowned heads of Russia before the revolution were called the Tzar of all the Russia's they where relatives of the British Royal Family, and there is a photo of all the Crowned heads of Europe including the Tzar from early in the last century 1900 ish or at least just before the revolution, this is possable because many of the Crowned heads of Europe where related. Anastasia the daughter of the last Tzar of all the Russia's had a brother with Hemophilia (blood unable to clot nicely) perhaps because of all the interbreeding? also another related link to the Crowned Heads is Earl Mountbatten of Burma. have fun confirming this info.

Answer 5

All the above are wrong. It is a misconception based on ignorance. The Russian royal family ditched the term Tsar/Czar in 1713 and adopted the more widely used European term Emperor.

Answer 6

Czar or Tsar. The last one was Tsar Nicholas. He along with his four daughters (Tatiana, Olga, Marie and Anastasia), one son (known as Nicky)and wife (Alexandra) were murdered sometime in the beginning of the 1900's.

Answer 7

A czar, or in Russian a tsar. The word comes directly from the Latin caesar, which in Latin is pronounced KYE-sar. Before it got to Russia it probably became the German Kaiser (all German nouns are capitalized all the time), pronounced KYE-zer.

"Czar" looks Hungarian to me, which in that language would be pronounced "tsar."

Answer 8

Czar before the Russian revolution which overthrew the monarchy.

Czar
