Asbardian Nobility comprises several ranks and titles that developed over the past two thousand years in southwestern Pytharnia. Greater Ranks or High nobles are normally required to attend to their duties as members of the Asbardian Diet. They may also be required to give military service to the Archduke. Lesser Ranks including country nobles are typically not required to give military duty, with some exceptions, such as the Seigneur. Those not required to give military duty may have a lesser restriction of derogation.
