Noble Titles were introduced with Release 2.5

Since then all Administrative Roles, such as Regent, Vassal, Guard Captain, Judge, etc. may elige people to assign them secondary tasks or Noble privileges. Furthermore, in order to do that, all Countries have been renamed to become Kingdoms (i.e. Byzantine Empire became Byzantine Kingdom).

Noble Titles in the Royal Palace

The King may, in the Royal Palace, name a Noble. Such title shall be assigned with caution, as a Noble represents an influent person on the Kingdoms decisions and may as well oppose the Royalty. Each Noble Title comes with a Land, that may have one person of several levels (Barony AND Duchy) or many people (X X Baron of Land1 AND Y Y Duke of Land1) or simply one Noble Level (Barony, X X Baron of Land1)

The influence of the Nobles is given by the King themselves, those listed below are suggestion of how they should be used. Read your Kingdom rules to know how important a Title is there! (Every Kingdom shall have some laws on this subject. If none was written either they don't want nobles, either they don't give importance to titles)

There are two kinds of noble a King may name, depending on the growth of the Kingdom itself.

Primary Royal Nobility

Each King may name only one Prince per Kingdom and/or one Marquis for each Castle built in their Kingdom.


The Prince follows the King.

Their power and influence are great and their will to take into consideration when starting about an important project. They may, and often do, represent the designed person who shall take power at King death or destitution.


The Marquis follows the Duke.

Their power and influence are considerable and their will to take into consideration when starting about an important project. They are relying on the King's family and life to give power to the causes they fight for.

Secondary Royal Nobility

Each King may name a Duke, an Count, a Viscount and two Barons for each Castle built in their Kingdom.


The Duke follows the Prince.

Their power and influence are considerable and their will to take into consideration when starting about an important project. They are the highest position a person may ask for not straightly involved with the King's life and/or family, as they mostly rely on the Vassal of their Land.


The Count follows the Marquis.

Their power is good, but not enough to really push decisions where their interests are, nevertheless their powerful allies for a congregation of Nobles.


The Viscount follows the Earl.

Their power is good, but not enough to really push decisions where their interests are. They may be more influent at local level, than national one.


The Baron follows the Viscout.

Their power to the King is almost nothing, but may be much stronger against a Vassal's decision, as they rely on the territory they were assigned.

Noble Titles in the Castle

The Vassal may, in the Castle, name a Noble. They may name two Lords and four Knights.


The Lord follows the Baron.

The Lord is the real first step to become a Noble. They showed a peculiar bravery or skill that worth a Title, but they still don't really influence decisions at any level, as they are below Vassals.


The Knight follows the Lord They are the basic Nobility. They do not properly belong to nobility, but they often are considered as Nobles. They may be named after bravery in Battle or as a reward for other out of the ordinary actions.
