I don't like the full title much - AFAIK Schwarzenberg doesn't have a full title: he can be Fürst in german-speaking countries, but as a Czech citizen (let alone government minister), he doesn't have a title, aristocratic titles having been abolished sometime in 1920s... Note that his official biography at the Czech Ministry of Foreign Affairs (http://www.mzv.cz/wwwo/mzv/default.asp?id=52498&ido=7998&idj=2&amb=1) doesn't include it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.103.157.191 (talk) 10:48, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

also in Austria (unlike Germany) aristrocratic titles (like Fürst) are forbidden. Nahabedere (talk) 15:12, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
Yes, but he have dual nationality - Czech ans Swiss, and in Swiss is using of titles allowed. And he is normally titled in press as Prince by premier and others ministers. Yopie 15:51, 14 March 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Yopie (talk • contribs)
