	Imperial Highness - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		His/Her Imperial Highness (abbreviation HIH) is a style used by members of an Imperial family to denote Imperial - as opposed to royal - status to show that the holder in question is descended from an Emperor rather than a King (compare His/Her Royal Highness).
		Today the style has mainly fallen from use with the exception of the Imperial family of Japan, and the descendants of the Imperial Line of Russia who are still addressed as such, although, of course, have no longer any power in Russia.
		Archdukes of Austria from the Habsburg dynasty held the style of Imperial and Royal Highness (in German:Kaiserliche und königliche Hoheit), with the "Royal" signifying their status as Princes of Hungary and Bohemia.

		Her voice is that of a woman caught on the wrong side of history who suffered much tragic loss.
		Her second marriage caused her to become something of an outcast among her fellow Romanovs in exile, but she willingly gave up their society for the life of a simple country wife and mother, first in Denmark and later in Canada.
		Her descriptions of their loving home and family and of her brother and sister-in-law's many kindnesses are a welcome contrast to the many books which depict the last Tsar and Empress as cold and heartless.
