I'm working on a story and I was wondering a few things about hierarchy:
When a brother of a king marries, does he still live in the palace with hsi older brother, but with his new wife? What about a Kings sister?(I assume he prolly goes with her husband somewhere else)
Who makes up the "royal court"? Not in current day now, but way back then. Did the royal court consist of relatives of the king/queen, friends, or where they the administrative workers of the queen? Did the royal court live in the palace as well?
Who is below a king? If its the Queen, who is 'below' her? What is the rank? I've heard of barons, knights, princes, dukes/duchesses, lords etc. - but where do they fit on the hierarchy ranking? Where do the cousins of the king and queen fit?
Thanks For your help!!!
