Margrave, German governor. Mar is Ram, strike, reversed (contrary) and Grave is critical.

RAM backwards, then GRAVE

Impressive. Never heard of Margrave so wouldn’t have stood a chance; thanks for letting me avoid 10 days of low-level anxiety!

The most well-known Margrave is probably the Margrave of Brandenburg, for whom Bach wrote the concertos!
