Краљ или владар?

Према предању Римљани баш и јесу имали кралјеви. Управо због того су вољели своју републику, то јес услијед лошег искуства.

Hello David, in Serbian: for Kings, Tsars... in pre-Ancient Ages correct is: Vladar(i) / Владар(и) or Vladalac, Vladaoci / Владалац, Владаоци (old fashioned), in Ancient: Imperatori, carevi (император, цар)... Kings, Tsars (Краљ, Цар)... are reserved fot Medieval... and later ages. Best --ангелина марковић 05:34, 18 апр 2005 (CEST)

I'm in a difficult position because if you base your argument on the norms of the Serbian language then you are clearly the expert. However the kings of pre republic Rome were totally different from the later Emperors. Imperator originates in the republic and is a title given to a victorious general. Tsar (цар) is just Ceasar in a different form. Further there is a sharp distinction between Kings such as Alexander who's right was accepted by law and/or custom and tyrants who had usurped power. I won't do any further editing on this but please check what the normal translation of the latin “Rex” is.
