Ace, King, Queen, Jack.
Usually males are considered superior to females. Death and blood have a lot of connections usually.
For example, Queen Elizabeth is the tops now in the British Commonwealth, but why isn't her husband the king then? Because a king is considered higher than a queen, but blood is considered more important than that. She's the one with the royal ancestry, so she comes up tops.
Japan recently is going through some problems as the eldest son of the emperor had a daughter, no son. What to do? In Japan, unlike the U.K., the head MUST be a male. There's no such thing as just having an empress, without an emperor. But, the second son of the emperor recently had a son. It is assumed now that that son will take over as emperor, even though his cousin is older and is of the emperor's first son.
People are lame, eh?

The sovereign
The royal family (Prince Philip and their four children, followed by the sons and grandsons of previous kings, who are princes)
dukes
marquesses
earls
viscounts
barons
Knights of the Garter (there are 24 of them)
baronets (hereditary knights)
all other orders of knights.
The complete order of precendence includes office-holders like the PM and Lord Chancellor above the peers, and spouses and children of peers further down the list, but I presume you are interested in titles.

Well, Kings are the highest of course, then Queens, princes, and princesses, lords, ladies, knights(which are similar). To be knighted anymore just means you are a lord and/or lady.
