What do you call a leader of a Shuriman city?

We have governors, kings, lords, and grand generals, but it never occurred to me what you call those who lead individual Shuriman cities and towns.

Just king would work too, then.

Azir seems to think he's some sort of emperor...

Have people bent the knee to him yet?

"Seems to think?"

You imbecile! Who are you to doubt the legitimacy of Azirs emperorship? He is the great Emperor of Shurima, betrayed by his friend and magus Xerath during the ascension ritual, resurrected by Sivirs blood, the one that earned the powers of an Ascended after saving her from a lethal wound!

Say your prayers, I will smite thee!

I'm embarrassed that I was hoping for a punch line. :(

Sultan? Emir? Padishah?

Most probably, satrap. Since Shurima seems like a mix between Egypt and the Middle East, the title of the provincial governors of the old Persian Empires, seems the most fitting.

When it was an Empire, Azir and alike would have been Emperor. Just the cities or provinces though? Governor, Mayor, Steward or Overseer seems most likely.

Well there are a couple of "heirophants" in Zuretta and Vekaura, but I'm not sure exactly what their roles are. They might be religious leaders rather than civil leaders.

The settlements that are under Noxian command are likely ruled by a "governor", as that seems to be the Noxian way.

Nashramae has a "Lord".

Shurima is a mix of different cultures, so I doubt there is one system that applies to the whole continent.

Azir is reffered to as emperor right?

Chromatic EagleFeb 8, 20181 votes

Yes but we still have other towns and cities. Also, have people even bent the knee to him? Not all people will submit to a bird man calling himself emperor.
