How do you say king in Russian?
tsar or czar Like "Kaiser" in German, the Russian "Tsar" or "Czar" is derived from CAESAR, meaning Emperor. After Octavian Caesar became Caesar Augustus, all the Roman Emperors were known as Caesar, and it became synonymous with Emperor. This I found, as well as the Russian word for King being "Korol' ", in a Wikipedia article about the word Tsar. It's quite comprehensive.

Who gave Octavian the tittle of Augustus in Rome?
He had been adopted as heir to Julius Caesar, and so took the Caesar family title, and when he defeated Marc Antony and took over the Roman empire, looked for a title which avoided the association of kingship and tyranny which had brought out the knives against Julius Caesar, and picked Augustus (Venerable) as high-sounding but devoid of political implication. He also took the title Princeps (First Citizen) for the same reason. As much as we today use the word Emperor today, it did not exist at the time - there was the title Imperator, but that was an accolade given to a general on the battlefield after a successful victory. Emperor is a much later word derived from this, but Augustus' successors continued the Princeps title, and also called themselves Augustus.
