I think “Tetrarch” is a lovely word – and with an interesting derivation, as it appears both in Olde English literature (“tetrarche” – “ruler of one of four divisions of a kingdom or province,”) in Latin (“tetrarcha”) and in Greek “tetrarkhes” – from tetra- “four” and arkhein “to rule”).
I look forward to the next lesson!
John
