    I remember discussing or commenting on how pointless titles were... Well, I just found the title of Suleiman the magnificent. It is a bit exaggerated, so to speak, and I feel I have to share it.

    Sultan of Sultans,
    Khan of Khans,
    Commander of the Faithful and Successor of the Prophet of the Lord of the Universe,
    Protector of the Holy Cities of Mecca, Medina and Jerusalem,
    Emperor of The Three Cities of Constantinople, Adrianople and Bursa, and of the Cities of Damascus and Cairo, of all Azerbaijan, of the Magreb, of Barka, of Kairuan, of Aleppo, of the Arabic and the Persian Iraq, of Basra, of El-Hasa strip, of Raka, of Mosul, of Parthia, of Diyar-i bekr, of Kurdistan, of Cilicia, of the provinces of Erzurum, of Sivas, of Adana, of Karaman, of Van, of Barbary, of Abyssinia, of Tunisia, of Tripoli, of Damascus, of Cyprus, of Rhodes, of Crete, of the province of the Morea, of the Mediterranean Sea, the Black Sea and also their coasts, of Anatolia, of Rumelia, of Baghdad, Greece, Turkistan, Tartary, Circassia, of the two regions of Kabarda, of Georgia, of the steppe of the Kypshaks, of the whole country of the Tatars, of Kefe and of all the neighbouring regions, of Bosnia, of the City and Fort of Belgrade, of the province of Serbia, with all the castles, forts and cities, of all Albania, of all Eflak and Bogdania, as well as all the dependencies and borders, and many other countries and cities.

    I can imagine a royal page or aide rolling their eyes as they start into the territories.

    Now I know what to say whenever anyone asks for the definition of "Magnificent."

    Am I the only one who, while reading through such a powerful title, noticed the bolded sections and read Tatery and Taters instead of what it should be?

    I blame Chris for all this potato obsession going on.... :unamused:

    If you want, oh great illustrious leader, I can invent one for you.

    And Hakiyah, nice find. I especially like it considering how much smaller the German empire at the time of Wilhelm II (or indeed any time) compared to Suleimans empire.... And yet the title for it is almost as big.
