Overview of Noble Titles
The peerage of the Kingdom of Crathlia can be quite confusing for those who haven't spent most of their lives submerged in it (like myself). Formal forms of address, in particular, can be easy to get wrong. This page serves as a "cheat sheet" of sorts, a reference of how to address people with full, real-life examples.
The first bullet point in quotation marks underneath each title refers to how one would address the noble in a formal setting. The second refers to how a noble of this rank would be announced at a ball or other formal event.
This article assumes for the sake of example that I am already married to Crown Prince Victor.
Who are they, and how do you address them?
