'''Imperial court''' ([[Standard Latin language|Latin]]: ''Curia imperialis''), formally referred to as the '''Most Blessed Court of Purple''', or more informally as the '''Government of Latium''', is a collective of agencies, individuals, and offices that serve as the government of [[Latium]]. At the head of the central government is the [[Monarchy of Latium|Emperor]], and below him are numerous Court officials to support the administration of the executive through the complex and extensive bureaucracy. Along with being the primary administrative apparatus of the Emperor, court also consists of the Imperial household and its own administrative offices to support the Emperor and the [[Latin Imperial Family|Imperial Family]].

The '''Count of the East''' ([[Standard Latin language|Latin]]: ''Comes Orientis'') is the appointed governor of the [[Diocese of the East]], also known as Perateia. The Count is the chief imperial representative and head of the sub-national government in Perateia. As an appointed office, the Count of the East is not responsible to the elected [[Perateian Assembly]], but instead the Emperor and central imperial government.


Court is a broad term that may also refer to any other individuals that attend to the Monarch and his or her family, retinue, nobility, individuals with court appointments or informal advisors, and may also include emissaries from other nations or visitors simply to the court. Historically, court has hosted exiled members of deposed governments. Over the nearly two thousand year history of the empire's existence, many changes have taken place and titles and offices have been adopted or discarded.  
The office of Count was originally established in the eastern Periclean region in the 3rd century CE, maintaining the role of governor over the modern day territories of X, Y, and [[Vardana]]. Following the loss, and later abandonment, of the eastern provinces in the 6th century, the last late classical count, [name], established himself as King over parts of the former Latin holdings centered on [[Leonopolis]], where successive kings continued to claim the title of Count of the East. Use of the office remained dormant in [[Latium]] until 1833, and the [[Lihnidosi Rebellion]], which resulted in Latin control over parts of [[Vardana]], namely [[Leonopolis]] and the surrounding countryside. Since the office was reactivated in 1833, 40 individuals have served, including with 5 future emperors.

==History==
==Role==
The court system of government was first established by [[Iovinus, Latin Emperor|Emperor Iovinus]] in the 4th century AD, instituting a variety of civil and military titles, whereby noble rank was afforded based on membership in the [[Senate of Latium|Senate]]. By the 6th century and due to the loss of territory, a new court system was introduced and began to oversea the ancient and elaborate administration. This period saw the introduction of the new title ''comes'' (companion of the emperor), which was a prestigious rank afforded to offices within court. This rank was most notably associated with members of the newly established [[Sacred Assembly]], which became the Emperor's chief means of governing.

This period saw the rise of a new aristocracy, though continued to incorporate many of the [[Gentes Maiores]] families, such as the X, Y, and Z. As time passed, new titles displaced older titles, or older titles would absorb the duties of another, including the [[Master of Offices]]. Originally the Over civil nobility and military hierarchy were distinguished, though both came to consist of intertwined groups. Unlike other Belisarian states, the nobility had no military forces of their own, however they often owned extensive land holdings.

The Count of the East (Latin: Comes Orientis) is the appointed governor of the Diocese of the East, also known as Perateia. The Count is the chief imperial representative and head of the sub-national government in Perateia. As an appointed office, the Count of the East is not responsible to the elected Perateian Assembly, but instead the Emperor and central imperial government.

The office of Count was originally established in the eastern Periclean region in the 3rd century CE, maintaining the role of governor over the modern day territories of X, Y, and Vardana. Following the loss, and later abandonment, of the eastern provinces in the 6th century, the last late classical count, [name], established himself as King over parts of the former Latin holdings centered on Leonopolis, where successive kings continued to claim the title of Count of the East. Use of the office remained dormant in Latium until 1833, and the Lihnidosi Rebellion, which resulted in Latin control over parts of Vardana, namely Leonopolis and the surrounding countryside. Since the office was reactivated in 1833, 40 individuals have served, including with 5 future emperors.

Today, the Count of the East is the chief magistrate of the Diocese of the East and serves as the primus inter pares of the Perateian Executive Council. The count is ex offico the Vicar of Perateia, and a member of the Perateian Assembly.
