Russian Grand Dukes
This is a list of those members of the Romanov, Russian imperial family who bore the title ''velikiy knjaz'' (usually translated into English language, English as grand duke, but more accurately grand prince). This courtesy title was borne by the sons and male-line grandsons of the Emperor of all the Russias, along with the style of His Imperial Highness. They were not sovereigns, but members and dynasts of the House of the reigning emperor. The title ''grand prince'' is the English translation of the Russian language, Russian ''великий князь''. The Slavic languages, Slavic ''knyaz'' and the Baltic languages, Baltic ''kunigaitis'' (both nowadays usually translated as prince) is a cognate of king.
