Fidalgo
''Fidalgo'' (, ), from Galician and Portuguese —equivalent to a nobleman, but sometimes literally translated into English as "nobleman" —is a traditional title of Portuguese nobility and Brazilian nobility that refers to a member of the titled or untitled nobility. A ''fidalgo'' is comparable in some ways to the French '' gentilhomme'' (the word also implies nobility by birth or by charge), and to the Italian '' nobile'' but having a higher rank to the British baronet as being a part of the aristocracy, not a commoner. The title was abolished after the overthrow of the monarchy in 1910 by the democratic federal republic and is also a family surname. Origins and etymology The word has the same etymological and historical roots as its Spanish cognate, '' hidalgo''. Although ''algo'' generally means "something", in this expression the word specifically denotes "riches" or "wealth" and thus was originally synonymous with ''rico homem'' (literally, "a rich man").

Castellan
A castellan, or constable, was the governor of a castle in medieval Europe. Its surrounding territory was referred to as the castellany. The word stems from . A castellan was almost always male, but could occasionally be female, as when, in 1194, Beatrice of Bourbourg inherited her father's castellany of Bourbourg upon the death of her brother, Roger. Initial functions During the Migration Period after the fall of the Western Roman Empire (third to sixth century), foreign tribes entered Western Europe, causing strife. The answer to recurrent invasion was to create fortified areas which evolved into castles. Some military leaders gained control of several areas, each with a castle. The problem lay in exerting control and authority in each area when a leader could only be in one place at a time. To overcome this, they appointed castellans as their trusted vassals to manage a castle in exchange for obligations to the landlord, often a noble. In the 9th century, as fortification ...
