Historical Romanian ranks and titles
- Historical Romanian ranks and titles
This is a glossary of historical Romanian ranks and titles used in the principalities of Moldavia, Wallachia and Transylvania, and later in Romania. Many of these titles are of Slavic etymology, with some of Greek, Byzantine, Latin, and Turkish etymology; several are original (such as "armaş", "paharnic", "jitnicer" and "vistiernic"). Various "boier" titles correspond to various honorary services at the Court, but often they were associated with various actual governmental duties as well.
"Mare" (Romanian), "vel" (Slavic) or "baş" (Turkish) are composing parts used with other titles. Synonymous with the Byzantine "Megas", they precede a title or rank: Mare Vornic, Mare Stolnic, Vel Paharnic, Vel Pitar, Vel Logofăt, Baş Boier, etc.
