císaským

Císařský is a Czech adjective meaning related to an emperor or an empire, and it is used to describe things associated with an emperor or imperial authority. The instrumental singular form is císařským; other forms follow standard Czech adjective declension (císařský, císařská, císařské, císařským, císařskému, císařského, etc.). The word is derived from císař (emperor) and the suffix -ský, with its origin in Latin via German.

In historical contexts, císařský denotes affiliations with imperial institutions or domains. Common usages include císařský dvůr (the imperial court), císařský titul (the imperial title), and císařská armáda (the imperial army). In Czech historiography and geography, the term often appears in discussions of former empires such as the Holy Roman Empire or the Austro-Hungarian Empire. For the latter, Czech sources frequently refer to Rakousko-Uherské císařství (the Austro-Hungarian Empire) and describe its imperial structure as císařství (an empire) or císařsko-královská monarchie in certain contexts.

The term contrasts with královský (royal), which denotes relations to a king rather than an emperor. The broader category includes related nouns such as císař, císařovna (empress), and terms for imperial institutions. In contemporary Czech, císařský is primarily used in historical, literary, or archival contexts, rather than in modern political vocabulary.
