first king
Original royal sovereign
First king typically refers to the inaugural monarch of a dynasty, nation, or legendary lineage—the ruler who establishes royal succession: Saul was the first king of Israel.
The phrase often carries mythic weight, suggesting a founding figure whose reign marks the beginning of an era: Every nation has stories about its first king.
