Royal courts
Extracted from the Wikipedia article Royal court.
A royal court, often called simply a court when the royal context is clear, is an extended royal household in a monarchy, including all those who would regularly attend on a monarch, or another central figure. Hence, the word court may also be applied to the coterie of a senior member of the nobility. Royal courts may have their seat in a designated place, several specific places, or be a mobile, itinerant court.
