List of royal saints and martyrs

This list of royal saints and martyrs enumerates Christian monarchs, other royalty, and nobility who have been beatified or canonized, or who are otherwise venerated as or conventionally given the appellation of "saint" or "martyr". Their names are in English and, where known, in their own language. When the status of a nominee is dubious the whole entry is italicized.

Other royalty and nobility

This section enumerates Christian royalty, including consorts but not sovereigns, and nobility. Christian sovereigns, while also "royalty", are exclusively enumerated in "Monarchs" above.

gollark: No sensible cryptographic algorithm would XOR all the data with exactly the same thing, because that would, as you demonstrated, be hilariously insecure.
gollark: Sure. But it would be easy to make it not do that. I could do that, even.
