Correct title
editA previous editor refers to Mangkunegaran as a 'Duchy', which in my view is incorrect and anachronistic. Traditionally, English and Dutch writers have always referred to successive rulers of Mangkunegaran as 'Princes'.[1][2] A 'duke' in the British sense is a nobleman who lacks the attribute of sovereignty, so it would be more accurate to describe the ruler of Pakualaman as a 'native prince'.

- when I was in yk and sk in the 90s - the term was used by non indonesians in the way they spoke of pakualaman and mangkunegaran - support and agree with the change JarrahTree 11:36, 23 February 2018 (UTC)

I also think this article should be moved to 'Mangkunegaran' from 'Mangkunegaran Palace' as it is mainly about the princely state of Mangkunegaran, not Pura Mangkunegara (the residence of the Princes Mangkunegara). I suspect this confusion arises from the old Javanese practice of referring both to the state and the palace ('Kraton') of a ruler as one and the same thing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AnakPejuangIndonesia (talk • contribs) 11:33, February 23, 2018 (UTC)
