Talk:List of titles and honours of the Spanish Crown

message: King of Algarve? Really? Is anyone sure that they maintain that title, since it pertains to a Portuguese region, and I had the idea that the kings of Spain dropeed the Portuguese titles after 1640. By the way is it of the Algarve or of the Algarves, which is the tradicional way (as in King of Portugal and of the Algarves)? The Ogre 12:43, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: King of Algarve?

message: The title should be renamed as "Roman Emperor". This makes the section conform to the rest of the article. It also addresses the actual use of the title in the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Empire.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.52.246.175 (talk) 23:19, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Byzantine Empire

message: "The last titular Byzantine Emperor, Andreas Palaiologos, sold his imperial title to Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile before his death in 1502.Norwich, John Julius, Byzantium — The Decline and Fall, p. 446. However, the sale of such a title in pretense was of uncertain validity and no kings of Spain are known to have used the Byzantine Imperial titles."
Did they actually use these titles themselves, let alone their descendants? If not, we should say this. BillMasen (talk) 21:14, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

:What are you talking about?  "King of Gibraltar" was absolutely a title used by the Kings of Spain before 1931, and, as such, remains part of the formal long form titulary of the present king, even though it, like most of the other titles, is virtually never used in practice.  The asterisk indicates that Spain doesn't actually rule Gibraltar. Is it offensive to note King of Jerusalem, or King of both Sicilies? john k (talk) 18:05, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Hah, my God, I can see the pathetic nationalism-torie-Old Empire crying in miles around. By God's sake, Kings of England are even kings of Canada, Australia, Jamaica, Barbuda, Papua New Guinea, Saint Lucia, Saint Kitt and Nevis, Bahamas, Barbdos, Belice, Tuvalu, etc... what are you complaining about? If you where as consistent as you are complaining about Gibraltar delicacies and buah-politics, you should make something about the Commonwealth, in where kings of England only have a De Iure realm and any power at all. So, why Elizabeth II maintain all those titles? Oh, the History! She uses them? Of course, but only in the brief way of "Commonwealth Sovereign", as the Spanish Monarch uses it, in its "etc.". Does it gives some rigth to do something? ha ha no, as all the kings in a parlamentary monarchy. 85.136.64.71 (talk) 18:50, 30 November 2015 (UTC)

message: "Ironically King Juan Carlos I of Spain is descended from both  the House of Orléans and the Royal House of Bourbon-Two Sicilies. Likewise Prince Jean-Christophe Napoleon is descended from both the House of Bonaparte and the Royal House of Bourbon-Two Sicilies."
I fail to see the irony.  Coincedentally? Interestingly? Curiously?

thread_title:  Prince of Catalonia? 

message: I have added titles abbreviated with etc., mainly old titles inherited from Charles I.
It would be nice include all coats of arms of these "abbreviated" titles and put in them altogether separately of the rest, in the Other titles maintained etc. section.

replies: text: as pointed out here (https://history.stackexchange.com/q/43113), the title of king of hungary etc... was not inherited by Felipe and his successors, not only because of the fact that Charles' brother inherited it instead, but also because Charles never held the title in the first place. 46.117.188.66 (talk) 16:50, 4 February 2024 (UTC)
