Isn't it the CZAR of Russia? Or are there several ways of spelling it?
As far as I know, just the two ways Ginny, tsar and czar!
Didn't read the clue properly. Kept on thinking second word as anagram of the first, and couldn't come up with a decent anagram for tsar or czar to fit the second part of the first clue.
Good one!
From a quick check on dictionary.com, I found that it can be czar, tsar, or tzar!
