Nice work!
Both Czar and Kral?
I read that Kral comes from Karl, a particularly severe German ruler...
Ah how nice, Ukrainian/Lithuanian military rurlers were called Geter.
Zhupan sounds familiar but I cannot recal where I heard it. Maybe I am thinking of Polish "Pan"

Kral derives from the same root as Karan: kara > to rule. It is a common Indo-European word, like for example in democracy. In fact the name Karl or Charles derives from Kral.
Tsar does not derive from Caesar, but it is an ancient Indo-Slav title for a supreme emperor. If it derives from Caesar why is it mentioned in 5.000 years old Vedic Sanskrit texts in India with the same meaning: emperor?
Zhupan, yes it is from Pan, or Pan is shorten from Zhupan. Either way. We in Slovak always use Pan which means Sir or Mr, like Gospodin in Serbian. It is said that Panonia got it's name from Pan.
Verho-Getornik, High Commander. Another Slavic title. There was in fact a Slavic tribe mentioned in Roman-Greek sorces called Geti who lived north of the Danube.
Perhaps you also heard of Vercigentorix, the Gallic leader who rebeled against Julius Caesar. Latin to add s to personal names would form x (ks) when placed after k. Thus Gauls had many names with the x ending. Whether Gauls were Celts or Veneti (Slavs) is open for discussion. Archaeology and lingustics point to the second.

Sounds like crap to me! Tzar is clearly from Cesar, and the time I put my eyes on Verhogetornik I thought about Vercigentorix. Are we stealing Celtic History now as well?

There is also a Persian word similar to Tzar' that means "head" or "leader" don't quite recall.
Even among serious historians the issue is far from settled. Even Karamzin said it does NOT come from Caesar.

Cant agree more than that!
No titeles of those y0ou named have lsavic words or meanings. Also Kmet is probably turkish or somthing but you will claim it is from early slavs in Mesopotamia that was ruling Babylon and was kings of all known world. :-) Stop it, it's getting redicolous.

Danik, I speak from my heart and this is what I get. It is people like you who will destroy Slavs eventually with your pathetic way of thinking. I pitty you for living in stone age. Have you any advanced knowledge of lingustics? I sopose not, so don't make comments until you do.

Our thinking is pathetic? You speak out of "your heart" and we are supposed to believe what you say? Academic debates and researches should be anything but a product of "heart".

Perhaps you missunderstood me or I have written it incorrectly. I ment I put my heart out meaning I worked my ars off to gather this info and then back it up with facts. Sorry but I have the texts in Serbian and I don't feel like translating them right now.

Zhupan sounds familiar but I cannot recal where I heard it. Maybe I am thinking of Polish "Pan"[/quote] The Grand Zhupan was a medieval title for supreme Serbian rulers ie. Stefan Dushan before he took the title "Tsar" after his conquest of most of the Balkans, in the 1300's.

How is kmet Turkish, when in Polish there is a word "kmiecic" which means farmer?
What about the Hetman title?
