A Raja (sometimes spelled Rajah) is a king, or princely ruler from the Kshatriya lineages. The title has a long history in the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia, being attested from the Rigveda.where it is more accurately translated as "tribal chief"; see for example the , the "battle of ten rajas"

Raja comes from the Sanskrit word ' (an n-stem with nominative '), and is cognate to Latin rēx, the Gaulish rīx etc. (originally denoting tribal chiefs or heads of small 'city states'), ultimately a vrddhi derivation from a PIE root '' "to straighten, to order, to rule".

Rather common variants in Hindi, used for the same royal rank in (parts of) India include Rana, Rao, Raol, Rawal, and Rawat. The female form, 'queen', mainly used for a Raja's wife, is Rani (sometimes spelled Ranee), from Sanskrit (compare Old Irish rígain).
