Bhutan: His Majesty Jigme Singye Wangchuck (1955-),4th Druk Gyalpo or 'Dragon King' (r. 1972-2006) crowning his son Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuk (1980-) 5th Druk Gyalpo in 2008. Courtesy Royal Government of Bhutan (handout-CC BY-SA 3.0 License)

The Druk Gyalpo (Dzongkha: ??????????????; Wylie: brug rgyal-po; 'Dragon King') is the head of state of Bhutan. He is also known in English as the King of Bhutan. Bhutan, in the local Dzongkha language, is known as Dryukyul which translates as 'The Land of Dragons'. Thus, while Kings of Bhutan are known as Druk Gyalpo ('Dragon King'), the Bhutanese people call themselves the Drukpa, meaning 'Dragon people'. The current ruler of Bhutan is the 5th Hereditary King His Majesty Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck, who is the 5th Druk Gyalpo. He wears the Raven Crown which is the official Crown worn by the Monarchs of Bhutan. He is correctly styled 'Mi'wang 'Ngada Rimboche' ('His Majesty') and addressed ''Ngada Rimboche' ('Your Majesty').
