IMPERIAL MAJESTY (STYLE)

'Imperial Majesty' (''His/Her Imperial Majesty'', abbreviated as ''HIM'') is a style used by Emperors and Empresses. The style is used to distinguish the status of an emperor from that of a king, who is simply styled Majesty (HM).
Today the style has mainly fallen from use with the exception of the Emperor and Empress of Japan (in , ''heika'').
