Castille
In Castille all the nobles (except the King) are technically all called Don, or Donna. Nobles actually
have roughly the same amount of land area under their direct control. So they claim domain over
that of their children’s land as well. So noble title becomes not only a measure of power, but also of
how high you stand in your own family. Adding the title is optional and only used for formal
occasion or when you want to point out how much land you control.

Vodacce
Like the titles of other countries, lesser nobles are granted dominion over a part of the Prince’s
estate. However in Vodacce they do not mark this estate in land so often as in responsibility. Many
of the lesser nobles do own and run land for their lord, but rarely does that land equate in size to
that of their equivalent in other countries. In true Vodacce style, few nobles admit to their title. They
are simply noble and that along grants respect. What they actually do for their lord is no one else’s
business.
