Czar is a Slavic Word, but mostly associated with Russia. A Czar (Or Tsar) Is the ruler of a Tsarist system. The most well-known Tsarist system was the Russian Empire.

The term "Czar" is a Russianized form of the Roman name and title "Caesar." Ivan III of Russia married a niece of the last Caesar of the Byzantine Empire and he liked the idea of being a "Caesar" from the long line of Caesars in the Roman Empire. He began calling himself a Czar, but his grandson, Ivan IV (Ivan the Terrible) was the first to have himself crowned with the title "Czar."
