(Latin: noble of the Romans)

Title conferred on Pepin, King of the Franks, by Pope Stephen II, 754, and later assumed by the emperors of the Holy Roman Empire. It carried a special obligation to protect the temporal rights of the Holy See and was therefore merely a protectorship; it was not equivalent to immediate and sole sovereign authority at Rome.
