The Prince of Petra, or Princess of Petra, was the title claimed by Belandra of Ghant following her conquest of Petra during the Second Crusade, of which Belandra was the first sovereign. The title merged into the Sydalene Crown after Belandra's death, and since the 14th century has been been the primary title of the heir apparent to the Sydalene Crown.

King Edward of Sydalon was the first heir apparent to be invested as Prince of Petra, which by royal decree was established as a heritable title and with its own succession rights (ie; cannot merge into the Crown). The title is held by the Sydalene heir apparent, and other titles are granted in conjunction, such as Duke of Ostracine, and Lord of Ajklabejta. The wife of the Prince of Petra is entitled to the style of "Royal Highness" and the title Princess of Petra, but the husband to an invested Princess of Petra is entitled to no honors other than those granted by the reigning Princess of Petra, or the King or Queen of Sydalon.

Hugh, Prince of Petra was invested as Prince upon his mother's ascension, on 22 May 2013. He is the youngest individual to inherit the title of Prince of Petra that did not assume the title upon their birth.

Role

The Prince or Princess of Petra is the semi-sovereign monarch of the Principality of Petra, an autonomous domain of Sydalon. The Prince also serves as the heir apparent to the Monarch of Sydalon.

The Prince does maintain a role in the formal governance of the Principality of Petra, and plays a key role in the swearing in of the Chancellor-General of the Order of the Holy Lance and other holy orders based in Petra, and the opening of the domain legislature.

The Prince of Petra may also issue royal warrants.
