In addition to the confusion about military ranks, I've also wondered about
the correct usage of noble titles in the Empire. Reinhard is made a Count,
which seems reasonable as Count is a real title in Germanic nobility (Graf),
but later is raised to Marquis, which I do not think is a Germanic title.
Other than Graf I don't know ony correct German titles offhand though. I do
know the *British* order of aristocracy goes: Duke, Marquis, Earl, Viscount,
Baron (From an old mnemonic I read somewhere, "Do Men Ever Visit Boston?").
We have seen (at least in the subtitles) Duke, Marquis, Count, and Baron in
LGH titles. But are these the most appropriate ranks? Ideas?
