	Royal Highness - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		Royal Highness (abbreviation HRH) is a style (His Royal Highness or Her Royal Highness).
		In the British monarchy the style of HRH is associated with the rank of prince or princess (although this has not always applied, the notable exception being Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, who was given the style of HRH in 1947 but was not created a prince until 1958).
		For instance HRH The Duke of Connaught and Strathearn was a prince and a member of the royal family while His Grace The Duke of Devonshire is a non-royal duke and not a member of the British Royal Family.

	nobility, noble, Nobility, class, title, United, Royal, Revolution, status, great, could, British, wealthy - Nobility
		Nobility is a historical, social and often legal notion, which should not be confused with socio-economic status which is mainly statistical based on income and posessions.
		This was coupled with a loss of the social-economic power of the nobility, owing to the economic changes of the Renaissance and the growing economic importance of the merchant classes (or bourgeoisie), which increased still further during the Industrial Revolution.
		Nobility in its most general and strict sense is an acknowledged preeminence that is hereditary, i.e., legitimate descendants (or all male descendants, in some societies) of nobles are nobles, unless explicitly stripped of the privilege.

	[No title]
		Originally, knights or nobles were mounted warriors who swore allegiance to their sovereign and promised to fight for him in exchange for allocation of land (usually together with serfs living there).
		Nobility in its most general and strict sense is an acknowledged preeminence that is hereditary, i.e., legitimate descendants (or all male descendants, in some societies) of nobles are nobles, unless explicitly stripped of the privilege.
		Nobles typically commanded resources, such as food, money, or labor, from common members or nobles of lower rank of their societies, and could exercise religious or political power over them.

	Royal and noble styles - Biocrawler
		Styles represent the fashion by which monarchs and noblemen are or were properly addressed.
		Members of royal families (Princes and Princesses) generally have the style of Royal Highness (HRH), although in some royal families (for instance, Denmark), more junior princes and princesses only bear the style of His or Her Highness (HH)
		They also hold the style of Most High, Potent, and Noble Prince, but even in the most formal situations that is usually simply abbreviated to Most Noble, and even that style is quite archaic and very formal.

	THE ROYAL PREROGATIVE, ITS USE BY THE HEIRS TO FORMER THRONES, AND BY REPUBLICAN OR REVOLUTIONARY REGIMES
		In Germany, all noble titles having become part of the name, these titles are recognized, but not as ranks of nobility; the extent to which the heads of the former German Royal Houses and their families are accorded their royal styles and titles largely depends on the attitude of their particular State.
		The French Revolution led to the abolition of the privileged nobility and the suppression of all noble titles, until the establishment of an entirely new structure by the Emperor Napoleon in 1808.
		The German Law of 1919 by which those possessed of noble titles took their father's rank (differed according to the sex) as part of the name, but without the style of Royal, Serene or Illustrious Highness, meant that it has not been possible for the descendants of unrecognized marriages to take different names.

	European Noble, Princely, Royal, and Imperial Titles (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Added to this, there was the concept of nobilis; to be noble meant you were descended from someone who had been Consul; being a patrician was necessary to become Consul (though you could buy your way in), but to be noble was ineffably grander, at least to the Roman way of thinking.
		In other cases, all the descendants of a noble have a title, the title holder, as in Italy, being styled "Duke of Suchandsuch", with everyone else being titled "Firstname of the Dukes (or Marquesses, etc) of Suchandsuch".
		The idea that a duke is a royal title, however, is strong in Germany, perhaps stronger than it ever was in Britain, where all the children of the head of some ruling houses are automatically a Herzog or Herzogin, much as imperial offspring were archdukes or archduchesses.

	Prince - Information at Halfvalue.com
		Many princely styles and titles are used in various monarchies, often changing with a new dynasty, even altered during one's rule, especially in conjunction with the style of the ruler.
		A number of nobiliary territories, carrying with them the formal style of prince, are not (or no longer) actual (political, administrative, etc.) principalities, but are maintained as essentially honorary titles (though some land, income etc. may be attached to them), and are awarded traditionally (or occasionally) to princes of the blood, as an appanage.
		In ancient China, the title of prince developed from being the highest title of nobility (synonymous with duke) in the Zhou Dynasty, to five grades of princes (not counting the sons and grandsons of the emperor) by the time of the fall of the Qing Dynasty.

	Royal Styles
		The styles used by kings to describe themselves in their own acts, or to describe other kings to whom they wrote or with whom they signed treaties, were handled by their chanceries.
		In practice, states varied in the styles they actually conferred on the mediatized families under their sovereignty (see a list of the states that had conferred Durchlaucht to various houses, from the 1853 edition of the Almanach de Gotha).
		The style belonged by right to the children of the sovereign (Partida II, Título VII, Ley I) although by the 18th century it was also the birthright of the children of the hereditary prince; no one else was entitled to the style (Informe del Consejo Real, 27 Oct 1823).

		This magnificent blend of the German Gothic and Italian Renaissance styles, the secular and the religious, a Catholic subject created during the spread of the Protestant faith, a mayor democratically elected at a time when royals ruled Europe, masterfully goes straight to your heart and soul.

		Although most aspects of the Khon dance form are similar to those of ‘Lakhon ‘(acting), Khon distinguishes itself from other forms of performances by the elaborate masks worn by leading performers, except for human and divine characters, who instead wear headdresses to indicate their ranks.
