Medieval Class System Chart Royal Family - Archduke - Duke - Marquis - Earl - Viscount - Baron - (Baronet)

Title Reference Guide

Royal Family: Refers to family members within 4 degrees of relation centered around the Emperor

• Semi-Royal: Usually refers to prospective royals. ex) Prospective Crown Princess

Archduke: Archduke status is generally equivalent to Duke, but their influence is incomparable. The decisive reason is that Archdukes have rights that other Dukes don't - namely, succession rights to the throne.

• Archduke Title: Usually given to direct family members who don't become King or Emperor (family within 2 degrees of the King or Emperor), naturally holding the highest status if it exists.

Earl

• Margrave: Literally means border Earl - an Earl who goes to border regions to protect the country, with higher status than regular Earls.

Viscount

: Deputy to the Earl who governed territories in place of the Earl. Usually given to second sons and below of Earl families.

Baron

: Usually refers to minor lords governing their own territories. In England, it also referred to lords who received fiefs directly from the King. (From Baron onward, titles cannot be inherited - life peerage; higher ranks can inherit as hereditary peerage)

Knight

: Knights also have their own small territories and have the right to receive crops as taxes. In fantasy, it's usually described as receiving monthly wages from lords, which isn't unreasonable, but knights can be seen as minor lords except for fighting on the front lines.

Semi-Noble: Though commoners by birth, they receive noble treatment for serving the country. Examples: Royal wet nurses, commoner knights, advisors to nobles/emperors, etc.

Emperor, Empress: Your Imperial Majesty

(Your Majesty -> highest honorific used only for Emperors and higher nobles who rule empires)
