Most often, the term has been used for the consort of a prince or for the daughters of a <a title=\"King\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/King\">king<\/a> or <a title=\"Sovereign\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Sovereign\">sovereign<\/a> prince.<\/p>\n<p>For many centuries, the title &#8220;princess&#8221; was not regularly used for a monarch&#8217;s daughter, who might simply be called &#8220;Lady&#8221; or a non-English equivalent. <a title=\"Old English language\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Old_English_language\">Old English<\/a> had no female equivalent of &#8220;prince&#8221;, &#8220;earl&#8221;, or any royal or noble title aside from <a title=\"Queen regnant\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Queen_regnant\">queen<\/a>. Royal women, or women of the nobility, were simply addressed or referred to as &#8220;Lady&#8221; or &#8220;The Lady Firstname&#8221; for a particularly highborn woman.<\/p>\n<p>As women slowly gained more autonomy and respect in <a title=\"History of Europe\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/History_of_Europe\">European history<\/a>, the title of princess became simply the female counterpart of prince; it does not necessarily imply being merely married to a prince.<sup>[<i><a title=\"Wikipedia:Citation needed\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Wikipedia:Citation_needed\">citation needed<\/a><\/i>]<\/sup> A princess may be a hereditary, sovereign, <a title=\"Head of state\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Head_of_state\">head of state<\/a> in her own right.<\/p>\n<p>The traditional meaning still applies in Europe in the sense that an untitled or at least non-royal woman who marries a prince will almost always become a princess with the possibility of eventually becoming <a title=\"Queen Consort\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Queen_Consort\">Queen Consort<\/a>, in nations where that title exists; but a man who marries a princess will almost never become a prince, unless his wife is expected to inherit the higher title of <a title=\"Queen regnant\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Queen_regnant\">Queen regnant<\/a>. If that is the case, then on her inheritance of that sovereign title, he will often become a prince (or remain one if he was already a prince).<\/p>\n<p>In many of Europe&#8217;s <a title=\"Royal family\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Royal_family\">royal families<\/a>, a <a title=\"Monarch\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Monarch\">king<\/a> would grant his heirs actual or theoretical principalities to train them for future kingship or to give them <a title=\"Social class\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Social_class\">social class<\/a>. This practice has led over time to many people thinking that &#8220;prince&#8221; and &#8220;princess&#8221; are titles reserved for the immediate family of a king or queen. In fact, most princesses in history were not immediate members of a royal family but rather women who married into it.<\/p>\n<p>Princess Cruises<\/p>\n<p>Princes (2006 movie)<\/p>\n<p>Princess Kate<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.princessproject.org\" target=\"_blank\">Princess Project<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Princess and the Pea<\/p>\n<p>Princess Animal &#8211; SF Rock &amp; Roll Craft Bar<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Take 5 minutes to do any kind of artistic response: poem, doodle, quilt, pastel, pencil.
