The ge'tn raI allusion to the rufer of
itussla as the czar is, strictly speaking.
Incorrect. Hie official title is "emperor

abandoned by Peter the Great on his
triumphal returu from Puttees. his
crowning victory over Charles XII. of
Sweden.. Since tbeu the Russian mon-
arch has been officially entitled em-
peror, and at the congress of Vienna
in 1816 his right to the imperial term
was admitted by the powers, with the
pruvbse that, tholugh he was emperor,
he had no precedence over the kings
