[edit] Form of adress

What's the form of adress used when talking to a sultan? His majesty?

• There is no single formula, it depends on the specific sultanate's radition (language, genealogy, feudal ties...) Fastifex 09:46, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism

I erased the previous editer's vandalism, and also erased the part discssuing church/state relations in christian kingdoms. It has nothing to do with this article. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 141.211.201.249 (talk) 09:15, 7 December 2006 (UTC).

[edit] Etymology

Since the article mentions the Hebrew cognate, shouldn't it also mention that the Arabic word derives from the Aramaic shultana (ܫܘܠܛܢܐ/שולטנא)?[1][2] --334 01:49, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
