Count, Duke, Earl, Graf, Viscount, Baron.. and everything else.
See I’m writing a story that takes place in the 18th century and the main character is the daughter of the Duke and Duchess of York. What I was wondering is if there is a Duke of York then can there be a Earl of York? (oh and is York in France or Britain?) I’m not quite sure how these titles work… And York is a region am I right? Also it would be very helpful to name regions near York that would require an Earl or Viscount or any other title. Umm, there’s a lot in this question I realize, but I’ve had a hard time understand how these titles work. So ANY information you can offer about Nobility titles such as how you address a daughter or son of a Duke, or Earl or any other title. Or how you address a Duke, Earl, Viscount, Count, Baron… yadda yadda.
