The title of ''king ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Nobility From County Mayo
Nobility is a social class found in many societies that have an aristocracy. It is normally ranked immediately below royalty. Nobility has often been an estate of the realm with many exclusive functions and characteristics.

There are often a variety of ranks within the noble class.
