A Peerage of Petra is a hereditary distinction in the nobility of Petra. The titles held in the Peerage of Petra are the highest-ranking individuals in Petran nobility, sworn to the Prince of Petra. These include the four original Petran titles created following the Second Western Crusade and the establishment of the independent Principality of Petra. Despite Petra now being a country-province of Sydalon, Petra, headed by the Prince, maintains a distinct system of nobility independent of the Sydalene nobility. All peers swear allegiance to the Prince of Petra, rather than the Monarch of Sydalon, to whom no such obligation is owed. Currently there are 5 extant peerages (all counts), with 1 vacant duchy that is granted to the Prince's heir apparent.
