Imvrassian Nobles
The system of Nobles in the Empire of Imvrassia is a collection of mostly hereditary titles granted by the Crown which consists of Imperial Titles and Nobility. The Crown has the right to award titles of nobility to citizens of the State, as well as to citizens of other states who support Imvrassia and its purposes. The titles of nobility awarded into the State are mainly related to the position of the citizens in the public administration.
Imperial Titles
Caesar and Augousta of Imvrassia. The male Heir to the Throne has the rank of Caesar and the female Heir to the Throne has the rank of Augusta. A Caesar or an Augusta until today, has no formal public role or responsibility, but the Heir to the Throne could represent the Crown when is necessary.
On 8 November 2021 on the occasion of the name day of the Emperor Aggelos, the co-Emperor Stamatios and Caesar Stamatios, an Imperial decree issued and it was decided that the Heir to the Throne may have an additional title with the rank of Despotes, which is the highest title an individual in Imvrassia can hold and is associated (nominal) with a Province. The Heir to the Throne acquires (nominal) the responsibility in a Province due to his secondary title, but this does not mean that it is upgraded to a Despotate, because he cannot held an autonomous state or an appanage in his capacity as Heir.
From 1 January 2022 the current Heir to the Throne, Caesar Stamatios, hold two substantive titles. The first title is that of the Despotes of Odrysia and the second is that of the Despotes of Orfalia and refer to areas that are of particular importance to the State, both politically and culturally. On 16 April 2023 Emperor Aggelos issued a Chrysobull and Caesar Stamatios was awarded the title of Hegemon of Thracia while his previous titles were abolished.
