A noble rank within the Imperium.

The standard ranks of Nobility are:

  1. Emperor / Empress
  2. Archduke / Archduchess
  3. Duke / Duchess
  4. Count / Countess
  5. Viscount / Viscountess
  6. Marquis / Marquesa
  7. Baron / Baroness
  8. Baronet
  9. Knight / Dame

Barons are awarded their titles when their world attains that potential as an Agricultural asset or comfortably developed Rich world.

Barons can be created and assigned by either the Iridium Throne or, in some parts of the Imperium, by the Archdukes of Domains. Those created by an Archduke are officially ranked below those created by the Emperor, but are usually recommended for Imperial appointment.
