[QUOTE="KitanaVorr, post: 583227, member: 9167"] [b]Kitana's Short Lecture on European Nobility circa 1880's[/b] Not all European nations have the same noble titles and one noble title from one country (even it is translated as the same word in English) will not always hold the same in another. If you want to know why, then ask and I'll tell. England has the strictest one, though. Most nobles are barons. The order for the English nobility is King(Queen), Duke(Duchess), Earl(Countess), Viscount(Viscountess), Baron(Baroness), Baronet of which Baronet is not considered a Peer of the Realm, but a Knighthood of sorts. You don't tend to be a Duke unless you're related to the King/Queen pretty closely. Usually the children of the King or Queen are given those titles without baronies. Now, even if you're a titled lord (duke, etc) it doesn't automatically mean you'll have an estate (barony). For Sweden, the noble title of "Greve" means "Count", but is equal to an Earl in England. Duke/Duchesses in Sweden don't tend to have baronies(they're given the title Duke/Duchess that has no land associated with it) and tend to be the children of the reigning monarch. Uh as for the character, check on my computer, Krizzel, I think its under the folder for my writings, under swedish mystery novel or something like that. I have him mapped out and you can see what you want to use from him. Okay I think that is enough to digest for now, LOL.... :p [/QUOTE]
