noble title for imperial ruler.
http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E4%BB%A3%E7%8E%8B
Editor: hm, two errors:
- 代 doesn't mean "generation" here; "代国,中国汉朝时的一个封国,位于代郡" -- 代王 really means "King of Dai"
- 代王 is not an imperial title; 劉如意 f.i. was successively 代王 King of Dai, and 赵王 King of Chao; but he was never Emperor.

Of course, in Han times, 代王 was a title conferred by the Emperor, and was more like a Duke or Count than an independent King.
Diff:
# 代王 代王 [dai4 wang4] /emperor of a dynasty (generation) in Ancient China/
