The Duke or Duchess of Valtoria suo jure is a substantive title in the peerage of Cordonia named after the duchy of Valtoria. The title was originally created in 1722 after splitting away from the duchy of Ramsford and has been associated with three different families: the House of Vandermeer, House of Koch and House of Walker.
The title is last in the line of precedence as it is the newest title and not part of the Great Houses. However, occasionally the title has been ranked higher depending on the circumstances of the incumbent; the current holder of the title is ranked first in the line of precedence by virtue of being the mother of the heir presumptive to the Cordonian throne.
The dukedom is traditionally associated with the dove and peace. There have been both dukes and duchess of Valtoria as the peerage system follows absolute primogeniture. The ducal seat is the Valtoria Estate near Vanderville. The current Duchess of Valtoria is Vanessa Walker (née Lopes) of the House of Walker.
