Tarnarian royal ranks is a system of ranks that originated in the State of Asdoh in the middle of the 16th CFR. It has generally persisted over the ages and is continued to be used today, albeit with some changes.
The ranks are believed to have either originated or been heavily inspired by a similar system in Dantria, due to the sophistication that would be difficult to explain otherwise. Settlers of the Dawn have exported a similar system to Yammoe, although that system has experienced a more turbulent evolution.
Gole-vy-Gole (King of Kings) is an imperial rank used by rulers who preside over several territories and peoples. Some monarchs have used the title to signal an ambition to build an empire and to proclaim their status to be higher than that of other monarchs. In some cases, the usage of the title would provoke a conflict.
Gole is a monarch. The title is used for both males and females. The Gole's spouse does not hold the title, but is the first in the line of succession to the throne. In some cases, when the spouse takes the throne, due to Gole's untimely death, for example, the regent might be referred to as Mel-Gole - "lesser monarch". This is not to lessen the standing of the regent, but to stress the status of the one passed away.
Gole Jeenor (King General) is a title frequently used by warlords. It is also sometimes used if the ruler has no descendants or if the ruler does not wish for their descendants to inherit the title, or if the system of government does not permit the title to be hereditary for one reason or another. In most cases Gole Jeenor is the same as Gole and carries a cultural note, but in some cases Gole Jeenor would be considered of a slightly lesser status than a proper Gole.
Murdoh is a title of governor, designated to a non-elected public official with the power to run a non-sovereign level of government, typically a city or a region of a state. Appointed by the head of state, it is usually the second-powerful rank in the country.
Uroh, sometimes spelled as Oora, is somewhat equivalent to a Lord. It's usually a member of a ruler's government and/or trusted circle. Uroh can be appointed to virtually any position. For instance, although a Jeenor is a position usually attained through an army career, any Uroh can temporarily or permanently replace Jeenor on the order of a King or a Murdoh. Uron get appointed to the Assembly in assemblic monarchies. They are the ones chosen as negotiators in a toor.
Gole
Gole is a monarch. In the absence of Gole-vi-Gole, Gole would be the highest royal title of the land.
Etymology
Murdoh
Main article: Murdoh
Murdoh's court usually consists of a Bortoh, several Davee-Murdoh and a Gorōloh.
Uroh
Uroh of land
Uroh of land is the oldest Uroh rank that dates back to the first revolution and the State of Asdoh, with possible links to Western Dantria. It effectively gives its holder total control of a piece of land, coupled with complete obedience to the Gole. The latter means that a perceived betrayal gives the Gole the power to revoke the title and any control of a piece of land that comes with it.
Interestingly enough, however, the Gole cannot cancel the title itself. This has to do with the Great Gole Assent, which is the three promises that formalize (or "explain", as spoken in the original Asdoh, which holds the meaning of "promise" or "reassure" in this case) the justification of Gole's power:
