Line 10:
Other semi-independent nations would be bestowed a title and rank with respect to their suzerain. So for instance, the King of Hashmarion (a tributary state of Akas Akil) would be bestowed the title of Prince of Akas Akil making him equal to the sons of the King who was his suzerain despite being a King as well. This system of patronage continued whereby a Prince would grant titles and honours to those who worked under him and held lands under him. The tradition was to name them after a particular job they did or part of his domain that they had been assigned control of e.g., Lord Keeper of the Stables or the Lord Prefect of Delamahan-Ashtarion.
There was no uniform system of ranks and titles and no mechanisms to interchange the titles and ranks used by different nations. When [[Iktan the Devout]] came to power, he needed a title that would be greater in power and prestige over the others, thus titles such as ''muMamluk ameMamluk'' (King of Kings), ''muMamluk muBas'' (High or Great King) or ''muShah'', short for ''
However, the process was very slow and his dynasty largely failed in this mission. Nevertheless, the titles that were well known in the Kingdom of Bakil such as ''muNagus'', ''muRas'', ''muBaron'' and ''muLij'' became popular. Some titles which were used in the Kingdom of Bakil such as ''muQamid'', ''muDawaheen'', ''muIhan'' and ''muTashraq'' and were granted to officers who served the High King and other Kings in combat as leaders of military units. These eventually became part of the ranks of the [[Packilvanian Armed Forces]]. As a court bureaucracy became more complex and hierarchical titles such as ''muVazeer'' and ''muRayees'' were reserved for court officials and eventually evolved into titles for the civil service and executive branch.
Line 21:
As Demirite Monarchs gradually became more closely linked with the nations of [[Aurora]] especially [[Great Morstaybishlia]], they simplified the ranks and titles of the nobility resulting in the 7 titles and ranks that exist today. Sultan Zygros II issued the edict entitled ''luKhaman luShahitishme aleShan nadine leNomin aleNabeel''. All people now known as nobles where given the default title of ''muNabeel'' or Lord and were entitled to sit in the ''muKhama aleNabeel'' (Court of Nobles) , the upper House of the ''luMijhalisgur aBakhilfaniya'' (the Great Assembly or [[Parliament of Packilvania]]). When clergy were integrated into this house, they were known as the ''muNabeel aleHivaliyah'' (Lords Spiritual). The [[Bedonite dynasty]] adopted the titles and ranks of the Demirite dynasty except by abolishing the title of ''muNabeel muHivaliyah'' when they came to power in 1985.
