The '''Peerage of Sydalon''' is a hereditary distinction in the [[Nobility of Sydalon|Sydalene nobility]] that encompasses a small number of individual nobles. Titles in the Peerage of Sydalon are held by the most prestigious, and highest-ranking indiviudals of Sydalene nobility. This differs from other peerage systems abroad that encompass nearly all titled nobility. The title of Peer of Sydalon is an additional honorific granted to those that are [[Political divisions of Sydalon|domain monarchs]], princes of the blood holding an [[#Blood domain|appanage]], and princes of the blood holding a titular ducal title.

==Background==
==Background==
At the creation of the [[Sydalon|Kingdom of Sydalon]] after the First Crusade in 1237, a number of [[wikipedia:Fief|fiefs]] were granted by the [[Pope of the Fabrian Catholic Chuch|Pope]] or [[Monarchy of Sydalon|Monarch of Sydalon]]. Originally, 15 fiefdoms were granted below the Monarch and are collectively known as ancient peers. These peers were attached to specific fief and territorial designation and were the chief vassals of the Monarch. Of these original 15 peers, only 6 remain extant with 5 currently functioning as modern domains in Sydalon. The remainder have since merged into the crown. As the highest remaining peer in precedence, the [[Monarchy of Montgisard|Prince of Montgisard]] is the most senior and prestigious Peer of Sydalon.

*Peers of Royal blood (according to date of creation)
*Peers of Royal blood (according to date of creation)
Typically the order of precedence is based upon the age of the peerage, with older peerages holding precedence over younger. The [[Prince of Petra]] is an exception to this general rule due to its status as the title of the [[wikipedia:Heir apparent|heir apparent]], and as such is not considered a peer. The Monarch may raise a peer in the order of precedence, and the order may vary in specific instances, such as the Monarch's anointing. Generally, children and grandchildren of a Monarch, whom hold the rank of prince of blood, are afforded precedence over all peers, except that of the Prince of Petra.

==Oath of peerage==
All peers, and lords of the domains, are required to swear an oath of fealty to the monarch upon their inheritance of a peerage and the ascension of a new monarch. The oath must be before the monarch, and cannot be offered by proxy. The peer, or lord, and his or her heir, is required to kneel and recite the following oath:
:I, [Name], [Title(s)], promise to be faithful to [King/Queen] [Monarch name], and [his/her] heir, [heir name, Prince(ss) of Petra]. I pledge fealty to them and shall defend them against all enemies, in good faith and without deceit. I swear this by almighty God.

The Peerage of Sydalon is a hereditary distinction in the Sydalene nobility that encompasses a small number of individual nobles. Titles in the Peerage of Sydalon are held by the most prestigious, and highest-ranking indiviudals of Sydalene nobility. This differs from other peerage systems abroad that encompass nearly all titled nobility. The title of Peer of Sydalon is an additional honorific granted to those that are domain monarchs, princes of the blood holding an appanage, and princes of the blood holding a titular ducal title.

Background

At the creation of the Kingdom of Sydalon after the First Crusade in 1237, a number of fiefs were granted by the Pope or Monarch of Sydalon. Originally, 14 fiefdoms were granted below the Monarch and are collectively known as ancient peers. These peers were attached to specific fief and territorial designation and were the chief vassals of the Monarch. Of these original 15 peers, only 6 remain extant with 5 currently functioning as modern domains in Sydalon. The remainder have since merged into the crown. As the highest remaining peer in precedence, the Prince of Montgisard is the most senior and prestigious Peer of Sydalon.

The traditional thirteen peers are (in order of precedence):

  1. Prince of Ostracine
  2. Prince of Montgisard
  3. Duke of Rabuleia
  4. Duke of Toron
  5. Duke of Philippopolis
  6. Duke of Melfi
  7. Duke of Hayan
  8. Duke of Esebon
  9. Duke of Vescera
  10. Count of Souzusa
  11. Count of Rema
  12. Count of Tarraba
  13. Count of Kappara
  14. Count of Thapse

Types of peers

Ancient peers

Within their domains, peers collect revenue from land dues, property, and salaries from offices held at the royal level. Peers play a key role in the anointing of the Monarch and are granted other dignities, such as the right to audience with the Monarch at time of convenience, attend sessions of Parliament at their leisure, and serve as chief executive within their respective domains. Of the original peers, only the Prince of Montgisard (simultaniously as the Duke of Vescera), Duke of Philippopolis, Duke of Toron, Duke of Hayan, and Count of Melfi remain and currently serve as executive leaders of top-level domains. Two domain executives – the Count of Gadir and the Count of Tanas – were originally lands subservient to the Duke of Esebon and the Duke of Philippopolis, but were created following the Sydalene Third Civil War and now constitute top-level domains. While there are lesser landed nobles in all domains of Sydalon, they are not considered peers; however, they also are sworn to both their liege lord-peer and the Monarch.

Blood domains

At the advent of the kingdom, secondary sons of the Monarch were granted appanges from within the Royal Domain in order to prevent revolts and were used as an extension of royal power in these areas. The first appanage created was the Principality of Adelon in 1361 to the illegitimate son of King William V. These titles were more restrictive than the ancient peers. Appanages in Sydalon are commonly referred to as Blood Domains. They earn their name as being held by princes of the blood, and may be only inherited by male descendants of the grantee, which excludes daughters. The lands cannot be sold, or otherwise transmitted, and revert to the Crown upon the line's extinction. Since the 1600s, blood domain titles formerly of comital rank are traditionally elevated to ducal rank upon granting.

Blood domains remain part of the Royal Domain, though today still serve an administrative purpose within the Royal Domain. Currently five blood domains exist: Duke of Esebon, Duke of Ramitha, Duke of Rema, Duke of Thapse, and Duke of Seressi. While Adelon was originally created as a blood domain, it is often considered among the ancient peers due to its longevity and status as a first-level domain.

Duke of Royal Blood

All male-line descendants of the Monarch are considered Prince or Princess of the Blood. Younger sons of the Monarch are generally granted a ducal title, traditionally a blood domain, though more common in the modern era they are created a Duke of Royal Blood. These dukes are afforded the status of Peer of Sydalon, and are typically granted rights over a much smaller territorial designation when compared to blood domains. In most instances, this dignity is ceremonial. Currently there are 5 Dukes of Royal Blood, and 1 Count.

Order of precedence

The general order of precedence among peers is:

  • Ancient peers (according to rank)
  • Peers of the Domain (according to date of creation)
  • Peers of Royal blood (according to date of creation)

Typically the order of precedence is based upon the age of the peerage, with older peerages holding precedence over younger. The Prince of Petra is an exception to this general rule due to its status as the title of the heir apparent, and as such is not considered a peer. The Monarch may raise a peer in the order of precedence, and the order may vary in specific instances, such as the Monarch's anointing. Generally, children and grandchildren of a Monarch, whom hold the rank of prince of blood, are afforded precedence over all peers, except that of the Prince of Petra.

Oath of peerage

All peers, and lords of the domains, are required to swear an oath of fealty to the monarch upon their inheritance of a peerage and the ascension of a new monarch. The oath must be before the monarch, and cannot be offered by proxy. The peer, or lord, and his or her heir, is required to kneel and recite the following oath:

I, [Name], [Title(s)], promise to be faithful to [King/Queen] [Monarch name], and [his/her] heir, [heir name, Prince(ss) of Petra]. I pledge fealty to them and shall defend them against all enemies, in good faith and without deceit. I swear this by almighty God.
