King and God a kind of remider of the time in which the king was believed to besent by God. (Former emperor saw themselves as a god or at least god-like) But after qa sort of war between the pontifex and the kings (so called war of investiture) this kind of behavior stopped abruptly and therefore this saying is a small reminder to these glorious times before that little "war".

It means king and god but if it's French it should be Roi et Dieu and if it's Latin it should be Rex et Deus. Sorry to nit pick!

KING and GOD. It represented the old belief of 'As above as below'- as in Heaven as on Earth - the divine right of kings. Simply a belief of the past

"King and God". There was a time when most European countries had monarchies and the assumption was that the King was God's appointment. (Bollux really)

"The King is God."
Which is kind of blasphemous.
