Grand duke
The title grand duke or great duke is used in Western Europe and particularly in Germanic countries for provincial sovereigns. Grand duke ranks in order of precedence below a king but higher than a sovereign duke. Grand duke is also the usual and established translation of grand prince in languages which do not differentiate between princes who are children of a monarch and ruling princes. English and French also use grand duke in this way. The title grand duke as translation of grand prince and the proper title grand duke have clearly different meanings and a separate background. Compare with the article grand prince. The territory of a grand duke is referred to as a grand duchy. The feminine form of grand duke is grand duchess. Translations for grand duke include: in Latin, magnus dux; in Spanish, gran duque; in Russian, великий князь; in German, Großherzog, Italian gran duca; in French, grand-duc; in Portuguese, grão-duque; in Finnish, suurherttua; in Polish, wielki książę; in Hungarian, nagyherceg; in Swedish, storhertig; in Dutch & Afrikaans, groothertog; in Danish, storhertug; in Lithuanian, didysis kunigaikštis; in Latvian, lielhertogs; in Czech velkovévoda or velkokníže.
