Tsarina or czarina (; , Serbian: царица, Tsaritsa, formerly czaritsa) is the title of a female autocratic ruler ( monarch) of Bulgaria, Serbia or Russia, or the title of a tsar's wife. The English spelling is derived from the German czarin or zarin, in the same way as the French tsarine/czarine, and the Spanish and Italian czarina/zarina. For tsar's daughters see tsarevna.
"Tsarina" was the title of the female supreme ruler in the following states:
- Bulgaria: in 913–1018, in 1185–1422 and in 1908–1946
- Serbia: in 1346–1371
- Russia: officially from about 1547 until 1721, unofficially in 1721–1917 (officially "Empresses").
Usage examples of "tsarina".
The red brick wall of the Kremlin rose like a vast, many-turreted crown above the city, encircling among other structures, several multidomed cathedrals, the bell tower of Ivan the Great, the Palace of Facets, and the nearby Terem Palace, where the future tsarina would be housed.
The snowflakes blinked around them, ester and ester, like the leaking blanks on the oldest archive footage, the runny white bits blobbing the white dress of the Tsarina as she turns on a white balcony under a white parasol to laugh at the haemophiliac child in his white sailor's suit.
