[Moeller] because the romanians ( you are speaking about now)
they are the only one of the romance folks which, not beeing
in the Empire, tough they keept the old name "i m p e r a t o
r e " in theri minds, and very proud of this, they gave it to
their children who made from this word împãrat. That is why
you dont have Tzar like in russian:-)))))
