Under the constitution, the king has no political power, but as Norodom Sihanouk was revered in the country, his word often carried much influence in the government. The king, often irritated over the conflicts in his government, several times threatened to abdicate unless the political factions in the government got along. This put pressure on the government to solve their differences. This influence of the king was often used to help mediate differences in government. </p><p>After the abdication of King Norodom Sihanouk in 2004, he was succeeded by his son <a href="/wiki/Norodom_Sihamoni" title="Norodom Sihamoni">Norodom Sihamoni</a>. While the retired king was highly revered in his country for dedicating his lifetime to Cambodia, the current king has spent most of his life abroad in <a href="/wiki/France" title="France">France</a>. Thus, it remains to be seen whether the new king's views will be as highly respected as his father's. </p><p>Although in the <a href="/wiki/Khmer_language" title="Khmer language">Khmer language</a> there are many words meaning "king", the word officially used in Khmer (as found in the 1993 Cambodian constitution) is <i>preăhmôhaksăt</i> (Khmer regular script: ព្រះមហាក្សត្រ), which literally means: <i>preăh</i>- ("excellent", cognate of the <a href="/wiki/Pali" title="Pali">Pali</a> word <a href="https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/vara#Pali" class="extiw" title="wiktionary:vara">vara</a><sup id="cite_ref-27" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-27"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>27<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>) -<i>môha</i>- (from <a href="/wiki/Sanskrit" title="Sanskrit">Sanskrit</a>, meaning "great", cognate with "maha-" in <a href="/wiki/Maharaja" title="Maharaja">maharaja</a>) -<i>ksăt</i> ("warrior, ruler", cognate of the Sanskrit word <a href="https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E0%A4%95%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%B7%E0%A4%A4%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%B0" class="extiw" title="wiktionary:क्षत्र">kṣatrá</a><sup id="cite_ref-28" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-28"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>28<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>). </p><p>On the occasion of King Norodom Sihanouk's retirement in September 2004, the Cambodian National Assembly coined a new word for the retired king: <i>preăhmôhavireăkksăt</i> (Khmer regular script: ព្រះមហាវីរក្សត្រ), where <i>vireăk</i> comes from Sanskrit <i>vīra</i>, meaning "brave or eminent man, hero, chief", cognate of <a href="/wiki/Latin" title="Latin">Latin</a> <i>vir</i>, <i>viris</i>, <a href="/wiki/English_language" title="English language">English</a> <i>virile</i>. <i>Preăhmôhavireăkksăt</i> is translated in English as "King-Father" (<a href="/wiki/French_language" title="French language">French</a>: <i lang="fr">Roi-Père</i>), although the word "father" does not appear in the Khmer noun. </p><p>As <i>preăhmôhavireăkksăt</i>, Norodom Sihanouk retained many of the prerogatives he formerly held as <i>preăhmôhaksăt</i> and was a highly respected and listened-to figure. Thus, in effect, Cambodia could be described as a country with two Kings during Sihanouk's lifetime: the one who was the head of state, the <i>preăhmôhaksăt</i> Norodom Sihamoni, and the one who was not the head of state, the <i>preăhmôhavireăkksăt</i> Norodom Sihanouk.<sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources.
