Ceasar?

Trying Babel Fish
http://babelfish.altavista.com/tr

the translation of "Tzar" came up as "Tzar"

I'd say ceasar is a good bet.

King, Konig, Czar, and all other European terms for "King" are all derivitives of the Latin "Ceasar".

No, I think it's King, like NightStalker said. Caesar is latin. Keep it hand in case King gets shot down though.

Oh, and just to impress your teacher: Regicide is the killing of a King.
