From the Internet: “Carbon is a nonmetal that can bond with itself and many other chemical elements, forming over ten million compounds. Because it forms more compounds than any other element, it is sometimes called the ‘King of the Elements’.”
Anthropologically speaking, with a “harem” of compounds that large, maybe Carbon should be called the “Sultan of the Elements”. (—

I once had a young woman come up to me and said she wanted to date me. However, I think she used the word “carbon”.
