Titles



This was something I found about Arab titles. It's a poor fit but it adds more titles than 'prince' or 'princess' to the mix.

Caliph - While essentially a religious title, the position corresponds to that of emperor, with caliphs ruling over caliphates composed of subordinate sultans and emirs.
