Question: Would the son or daughter of a Holy Roman Emperor take the title Holy Roman Prince or Princess?

I know that the emperor had to be King of some place (such as Maria Theresa’s husband was Holy Roman Emperor, and she was Archduchess of Austria, and Queen of Bohemia and Hungary), so would their kids be Prince/Princess of X (wherever he was also King, or in this case his wife?) or would they also become Holy Roman Prince or Princess??

Im sorry, i know its confusing.
but it’d be much appreciated




Answer: No they would be called Archdukes, or Archduchesses, the children of emperors are almost always Archdukes, or Archduchesses unless they are ruling another area, and that would change their title completely.
