Eastern ruler (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sultan

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">eastern ruler</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(title for a royal in some Muslim countries)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for sultan that I've seen before include "Sovereign of a Muslim state" , "Turkish ruler" , "One governs" , "Ottoman sovereign" , "Chicken" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard and The Sun.
