In General

We are not an organization that awards fake or dubious royal type titles or issues a noble title associated with a one foot piece of land in a faraway place such as Scotland. You cannot buy a Nodal title, Peerage or Knighthood . 

History

 In medieval times and times gone bye, as late as the end of the 19th century and to some extend the very early 20th century a nobleman was associated with a family or a title and hence associated to a Monarchy. Many of these noblemen went into battle as feudal noblemen under their particular Coat of Arms.

Titles

Titles as such are awarded by a Monarch of a particular kingdom, country or sometimes the Head of a Royal or Noble House that were once on a throne. Ths is common in the royal houses in Europe various Monachs still surviving in Europe such as the United Kingdom, Netherlands and Denmark as examples. 

Desendants Rights

Descendants of the original noble family were taken to be noble in places like Denmark England Scotland Ireland and other European Monarchy’s or Principalities. There are however existing Monachs in places like Thailand and the Kingdom of Tonga that have very different systems and rules for example

Countries in the 21st century
